when you remove those bolts and put them back in, y'all are not concerned about developing an intake gasket leak?

kinda what i was thinking but didnt say anything! nice catch

Oil is seeping up the bolt onto the intake. I know it sounds funny but it's possible. either that or you have a bad valvecover gasket

Right.... Oil can somehow break the laws of physics and defy gravity. Happened to one of my older Zs.

And btw but some darn plugs in that thing boy LOL... NGKs or Autolites.

It not breaking the laws of physics ha, the oil is under pressure. It will go up and out anywhere it wants ha.

You should honestly use a non-hardening thread sealer on the manifold bolts so that that doesn't happen.

No. Do one at a time. None of them should be in contact with the gasket. Torque it back down correctly and you'll be fine.

Don't use thread tape, use a small tube of Loctite Thread Sealant (NOT locker!).
