you can pocket port the heads YOURSELF. costs the same as doing your intake.
How do you "pocket port" the heads? And what if you did pocket port the heads and the intake at the same time? Even better results?

Look in the throttle body and check for oil inside.

Painting your intake is harmless to performance. But obviously don't pain the surfaces needed for sealing.

Take the throttle body off completely and look around inside with a mirror and flashlite.
