Intake manifold gasket
A while back there was thread about oil seapage into the intake ports at the intake manifold. I can't locate that thread now.
Wasn't it said that RTV at the intake port to head opening areas caused the oil seapage problems?
What, if any, sealer should be used?

I think very often oil leaks through the bolt holes. You may want to try to apply some thread sealant (Permatex - non-hardening) to the bolts. Worked for me.
