Red face Numerous fault codes after valve cover gasket replacement

I have a 2005 545i with 186,000. I just replaced valve cover gasket. After completion I received numerous fault codes. The first fault warned of multiple cylinder misfires. I moved solinoids and she ran perfectly. I was checking for leaks and found passenger side gasket was leaking. After fixing leak the car gave more and different fault code such as throttle sensor. I'm at a loss for what to do next.

Ive read quite a few threads just like yours and just about all of them were that something was either un plugged , disconnected or loose. Have you double and triple checked everything.. Because if it was fine before u changed out the gaskets it prolly something u missed..
