Default Air Leak?

Changed my plugs & wires on Sunday. I finished putting everything back together tonight. Started the car sounded great. After I turn the car off I hear what I think is an air leak on the passenger side near the rear most plug.

Did I not get the plug in straight? Could I have broken the sensor on the header? Could I have knocked something else loose?

Any ideas on where to start?

Did you have the ac on at all? When you shut the car off, those can make a hissing sound from that exact place..

Default Thanks

Thanks Nuke. Thats what it was. I had the battery disconnected & I guess when the battery is reconnected it set the AC to auto.

I'm the new guy if you haven't figured it out yet.

Thanks
