Oil is leaking from my lower intake manifold gasket. 100% for sure. It it not the VC gasket. It is the lower intake manifold gasket.
Oil is pooled up inside the intake part of the heads, so I can't tell if this is bad valve stem seal or if this is the pcv valve allowing the intake to drink oil. So much oils pools in there that it leaks out from the gasket and soaks the whole bottom half of my engine.
This would explain and answer my question about a weird exhaust smell. It would also explain crappy low end power.
Any thoughts as to where the oil might be coming from? Or why there is so much of it?
