Default Best 2pc Timing cover?

Anyone have any good reviews for 3pc timing covers? I was looking at the Edelbrock one or QTP. Ive heard they leak is this true?

Which one is the best?

The qtp had some issues in the beginning with leaks but they worked it out. Haven't heard anything about the edelbrock.

I have the Edelbrock 2 piece, and don't have any leaks. I did have to machine it down to fit my double roller timing chain set up. The oil pump bolts were hitting the cover, so I put the timing cover on the mill and machined out .135 and it fits perfectly with no problems.
