Default Valve Cover Leaking

I have a 1990 Cherokee with the in-line 4.0. Is there an after market valve cover and or gasket that will last longer than about a year before it starts leaking again? I know Cherokees are notorious for leaking valve covers, but I am getting tired of having to replace the gasket every year.
