Can someone give me some advise on this oil leak. I have oil laying on top in the rear of the intake manifold. I cleaned up the oil changed the PCV valve and gromet and still have oil laying in the back.
Is there anything else I can check to see where this oil is coming from. I took the car for a short ride, not going over 40 checked it again and thre is the oil laying there.

Any help will be appreciated.
 
Hey Ray my name is Ray too:tongue: did you take the coil pack off to get a better look? is it runnin down the block? or just a puddle. the only thing up there is the horizontal line of the intake that mounts across the valley of the block, you may need one of those small mirrors and a flashlight.

i saw a little oil on mine also but i think mine is where i laid my oil filler cup one day and it leaked down from it while i was getting another quart of oil.:confused: i have a leak im huntin right above my starter for the last 2 days. hope you find yours keep seeking you'll find it.
 
Ray,

Its not running down the block, just a puddle. I have to look deeper, I thought someone would have the same problem.
 
As dumb as it sounds, check the valve covers. You may have blown one of them out.
 
I have the same issue I am trying to figure out where the oil is coming from.

My entire intake has a thin film of oil under the plenum, but back at the back of the intake the oil just puddles up.
