Most likely its the valve cover gaskets leaking.

If its a small block chev and gathering in the center of the intake beside the carb, its workin its way from the lifter vally up thru the threads of the center intake bolts. Take em out and ust some thread sealer on em and problem solved.

Give your intake bolts a turn sometimes oil can ooze out from them being loose.

Re: oil on top of intake manifold help..

i will try all suggestions.. thank you all for your help.. and the oil sits on the side of the intake manifold in between the gaps
