Let $p:E\rightarrow X$ be a covering map. Let $V$ be any open subset of $E$ and $e$ be any element of $V$. I feel that the following statement must be true:
There exists an evenly covered open subset $U$ of $X$ such that $p^{-1}[U]=\cup_{i\in I} S_i$ ($\{S_i\}_{i\in I}$ are the sheets over $U$) and $e\in S_{i_0}\subseteq V$ for some $i_0\in I$.
I spent some time trying to prove it, but I didn't succeed . I prefer hints more than full answers (if the statement is true).
Thank you
(Edited. The objection of the OP was substantial.)
Let $e':=p(e)\in X$. The point $e'$ has an open neighborhood $U'$ which is evenly covered by $p^{-1}(U')\subset E$. Let $S_0$ be the sheet of $p^{-1}(U')$ that contains the point $e$. Then $W:=S_0\cap V$ is an open neighborhood of $e$, and $W':=p(W)\subset U'$ is an open neighborhood of $e'$. This neighborhood is evenly covered by $p^{-1}(W')$, and the sheet of $p^{-1}(W')$ containing $e$ is $W\subset V$.
