RE: Using Oil Where is it going?

I have this problem right now and it is driving me bat**** [:@] This small leak that's coming from the back of the engine up top. I recently replaced the intake gaskets but opted to lightly coat the cork gaskets with sealant rather than running a bead of sealant as my machinist instructed me.

Sometimes if you've removed the intake and used the rubber gaskets on the front and rear they blow out and will cause a leak.Usually on the back of the intake,it will run onto the top of the bell housing and is hard to see.I always throw those gaskets away and just put a nice bead of high temp permatex in those areas.
