Bumping this real quick, my truck just took a turn,way for the worse. Pulled the air hose going to drivers valve cover and there is a ton of vacuum going into the VC. I see oil at the edges inside through the TB...guessing I'm replacing a plenum?

Yup. Get the Hughes kit, or if you have the dough, the Hughes FI intake manifold.
