I have two bolts on the passenger cam cover that is dripping oil. The Covers were R and R'd at SGC so the sealant might not be gm.. I was planning on just pulling the bolts and re-sealing...is that ok, or should I wait and call SGC?

Did you or SGC do the labor? If SGC did it, I'd contact them first.
Lots 'O labor.
If it was you, did you use the Permabond A136 anaerobic sealant?
Its this pinkish (expensive) goop that you place on the heads/cam covers
then torque the bolts in sequence (3X) as shown in the service manual.
These bolts also need dowdy washers to seal.
But the hard part is just getting access to all of this.....
Good Luck,
Ted Feder
Been there, Done that!

pull the bolts and replace the dowdy washers. kurt white has em.
that should do it. if the cover itself it leaking, it will need to be pulled and resealed.
