I remember a 'bent' taxi driver, he used to remove any lights that  were on before going for a MOT test. The ABS and engine management lights were the usual one to be removed!

'Chummy' with the Taxi testing station more like.

I was reading that the main cause of this valve going faulty is town running.It is advisable to take your car down the motorway in a higher gear and rev its nuts off.This will clear all the muck out of it.
They also said vauxhalls are famous for it.

If you make any modification to the engine, you need to update your insurance company about the modification.

And pigs will fly, you have not made any mods, only used a quarter inch thick blank gasket to make things  better

Do you call the insurance just because you have changed tyre brands, no you dont as long as the tyres are the size required

Therefore you are making a modification as you are making a change to the way the car operates! Not sure what tyre brands has to do with the issue? However if you change the alloys on the car, the insurance company needs to know!
