Are you talking a 750 engine and the part your talking about is the large top cam/valve cover ? Since those were held on by philips screws I don't think there really is the standard type of bolt torque to apply with those. Maybe just needs to be tighter if that gasket was good. Could it be leaking from the tach seal or somewhere else ?
Assuming CB750: generic torque on 6mm screws is 5 to 8 ft lbs. I'd take it in tiny increments until the leak stops.
http://www.salocal.com/sohc/tech/torquetable.htmOpinions about wet or dry are all over the map. We don't know if the torques in the manual are wet or dry. To be safe, some say, use 20% less off the highest number. That would take the 6mm screw to 6.4 ft lbs. That's still a lot for those IMO. You should be able to stop the leak before that. If you're already at 6.5, well its up to you.

Since the screw threads are hidden, the need is small to Nil. Where it needs to be is under the head of the screw where it meets the aluminum of the cover and is exposed to the elements. That's where the stick occurs.
