What valve cover do I have?

I've got an 87 Wrangler with a 258. I've been looking for an aluminum valve cover to replace the plastic POS to stop the leaks. Most say they're for either 81-86 5 bolt covers, or 87 and on for the 15 hole heads. My valve covers appear to only have the 5 bolts? what gives? and what are they talking about when they say some drilling and tapping MAY be required?

For about $90 you can get the cover that you have to drill and tap holes. And it is black aluminum. For $155 you can get a polished aluminum valve cover, that doesnt need drilling and tapping of holes at http://www.tellico4x4.com/alumvlvcov.htm This is the valve cover I plan to buy Once I FIND A DAMN BODY!!!
