The gasket is metal. There is no way it will stick on there in chunks. Just pry it off.
I was thinking intake side but still sand that rust off there.

In the first and second picture, it is very apparant that you have a nasty oil leak from your cam seal. I would fix that ASAP.

Not even. You just have to remove the cam cover on the exhaust side and then pry the piece off that houses the cam seal. Just make sure you use hondabond around the cam seal (not on the o-rings) and that metal piece.
