Very helpful video, Charles! Seems like ~8 ft. lbs is the recommended torque spec for the 3.3L valve cover bolts

[@CharlesAndCars]

That would be 96 inch lbs. Seems a little more that I would expect, but could be

My daughter had hers done under recall now it won’t hold antifreeze, did they forget to hook something back up?

[@CharlesAndCars]

Impossible to say. I wouldn't think it's related, but get a pressure tester put on it and test the cooling system under pressure to see if the leak shows.
