Looks like a sealant of some sort. El-cheapo way of stopping leaks?

Yup, probably pretroleum grade sikaflex or similar. Thats plugging holes in your cams seals...dodgy.

Thats funny, lucky your rocker cover wasn't leak or that might of had the same treatment, I have seen that a couple of times a work.
