Im not sure what this is, or was but i found these pieces under the valve cover when i was replacing a leaky gasket...can someone tell me what they are from?

Those would be whats left of your valve stem seals.

That is what's left of some valve seals. Does it puff a bit of smoke when you start it?

Kinda looks like a trashed umbrela type valve seal to me
