Installing Type-R valve cover

I can't seem to find a post on this. Is it necessary to remove the oil before installing the Type-R valve cover? I peeked in through the oil cap hole and noticed a lot of oil..

remember to remove all loose items from yourself before doing this. you dont want to drop something in there.
