When I put my engine together last year I did not do a very good job putting the intake manifold on. I thought I put a big enough bead of silicon on the rear of the manifold but evidently I did not. I have been battling a small oil leak that has been getting worse each time I drive the car. On Wednesday I drove the car and spring a pin hole leak in the hard tube of the heater hose where I welded on a AN fitting. As I was looking at that I found that my intake was leaking in the rear.
I started working on the two projects last night and repaired both of them in less than 3 hours. That includes taking a break for paint to dry. Not to bad if I don't say so myself considering all the crap I have on the engine. Now I hope I have the leak fixed, both the antifreeze and oil. If not I have some oil dye and a black light to track down the leak.
