90 Corvette Intake Gasket leak ?
Hello,
I have a 90 vette 5.7 and I believe it has an intake gasket leak. I have taken the valve covers off and taken some pics so you can see. It looses coolant but not externally and the oil is a little milky from the dipstick. I have heard that the intakes are dry and cannot cause this but not sure about that? The cars runs like a beast but does have problem like it wants to die and sometimes will stall after driving it pretty good when completely stopped but will stay running if switched into neutral so I do not think head gasket but would like others opinions and maybe someone has had same problem.
Thanks
here is link to photo bucket it wont let me attach

Here are the compression test results
Driver Bank passenger bank
1.168 1.168
2.155 2. 169
3. 165 3.160
4. 138 4. 150
The oddball cylinder is at 138 could have been a bad reading this is the number 7 cylinder I believe?
Any thoughts on this thread anybody
