boy do i feel silly.. The leak was the right side valve cover gasket. I never would have thought it would leak that bad over night. but.. oh well..its fixed im happy.. cheap too.. Plus while working on the car i changed the two ox sensers which i dont think were ever changed (127k)miles.. and i can tell a diff with the idle and driving. thanks for your replys

Default Get in there and hunt down that leak source.

Flashlight, Inspection Mirror, spray bottle, lot's of patience.
But it's all inexpensive.
Pulling things apart without confirming the source most likely leads to replacing parts taht were OK and wasting time & effort.
