You could always paint over it and then sand it down. Honestly, if you aren't even will to take the time to cut out the letters, you probably won't take the time to do a good paintjob.
To seal it off, just replace all the gaskets. How else would you seal it?

Remember to use VHT paint.
Also, you will want a new valve cover gasket with some honda bond on any uneven surfaces.
