    Need help quick! Broken rocker arms?

    It is my first time doing a valve adjustment and just need to find out if my rocker arms are cracked. Hopefully I'm just a hypochondriac.

    theres a strange L shaped crack on some of the rocker arms where as there is none on others. Some have a little bit of play whereas others don't.

    I've uploaded some pics, need help asap this is my daily driver and I can't afford to keep it off the road much longer than a day or so.

        I assume you are talking about the "L" shaped mark I circled in this picture? It looks to me like a casting mark, not a crack. It is hard to tell from a picture but it looks like it is a raised feature not a flaw in the metal.
