Cam cover gasket

Had above replaced almost a year ago by a local (Bosch) garage. Lee noticed it was leaking recently at the Z Shed. The garage has done the right thing and replaced it this morning under warranty. They did comment that the M44 engine is prone to leaking cam cover gaskets and they often need to be replaced annually; this seems a bit odd to me? Presumably, if fitted correctly and undisturbed, they should last for some years?
Just wondering if any other experiences of this?
Cheers,
Ian
