Make sure it's actually coming from the valve cover and not the back corner of the intake manifold

From a distance, I agree with you. Fittings are a pain in the neck but a cracked case is a lot bigger pain.
I guess those knock off fittings are a risk. I think I went with Earls the last time when I was working on the Challenger and some stuff on the Green Mile wagon. 4

Derek was on Tony DeAngelo's show getting a Fairlane GT running that he had bought. He kept spraying rusty drums and such black. He said he was making it "new" again.
He's got some nifty tricks. 7

Need some beads in it to make it stiffer.
they have some darned strong panel adhesive out these days that does a really good job. You could put some of that around the seams and then a few rivets to hold it nice and flat. Some undercoat on the bottom side and some insulation on top. 9

I tried to put one on backwards a few years back. I did not notice that the thread sizes were different from front and rear. I put it on the way that it seemed to fit best. Then I realized neither end would screw in. It fit pretty well with a few bend corrections.
Then it got a few more bend corrections when I pulled it off and and re-bent it to best fit the other way around. Not one of my better days but it still works. 12

Cross hatching looks brand new. Does not look like it was run much lately...I say that because it is a bit rustier inside that I would have guessed.
Have you tried putting some heat to the arm around the shaft and then hitting the puller with an impact? 14
