Hello everyone,,
So I've been noticing an accumulation of oil puddling up on my intake manifold. It's down in the valley past the injectors. It has me baffled. I'm really not sure where oil would be coming from here. I see 1 or 2 intake manifold to head bolts looks a little oily. Does any of those bolts go into a oil supply, and need thread sealant? Just as a side note, I just recently went through the hole upper end.https://snaptube.cam/ https://syncnet.onl/telegram-web/ https://9apps.cam/

It's most likely the valve cover gasket. The stud needing sealant is on the exhaust side. Get new valve cover gaskets if they're old & redo it. OEM or Felpro work best and make sure you clean good & follow the FSM while installing.
 
Could also be oil getting into the intake manifold from the pcv system. When I had my intake off, there was a lot of oil inside. Catch can with one way check valve will solve this. I’d also check the charge pipes to eliminate turbo seals.
 
I think the OP is noticing the oil puddling on the outside. PVC & check valve (& catch can) would be good if he's getting oil inside though.

oh yeah. Outside almost certain it’s the valve cover.
