White smoke and oil on intake manifold
For some time now my Vette has been spewing white smoke out of the exhaust and a sulfuric smell, it has straight pipes no cats so a little gas smell I would assume to be normal,
Now I got some coming out of the back of the intake manifold and i saw some oil on top of it as well, I'm assuming this could be a bad intake manifold gasket, but before I do hours of labor anyone have suggestions on diagnosing it or what other problems it could be?

If you have white smoke out the exhaust with the engine warm, you have coolant entering the combustion chamber. Bad head gasket, cracked block or head are the usual culprits.
