Default Intake leak

I was wondering if any one has had any problems with the intake manifold leaking or warping? I have a leak around the #4 cylinder. I tried tightening it with no avail. I was going to replace the gasket but am concerned about the intake being possibly warped. I bought the car new and have never over heated it or beat it. I just don't understand why the intake would start to leak. Thanx in advance for your re;plies. - Tony

Gasket deterioration will cause it to leak.
