Angry Leaking Oil After Head Gasket!

Hey everyone, please help!
I am out of ideas and im about to pull off my intake manifold but if someone can save me that annoying job i would be so thankful!



Done a head gasket, had the head machined and cleaned and serviced

started the car and now im leaking oil from the corner of the intake manifold which is so weird?

the only thing i can think of is that the head shop left out a block off plug ??

heres a video that i found online with my exact same issue!!

Thanks so much!

Krystal

Did you change valve cover gasket? It's leaking from somewhere above the intake manifold and draining down. Try to take more pictures looking up and back track to source of leak.

If you have evo 9, check your MIVEC oil line to head. One of the banjo bolts can be leaking? Maybe broken or missing washer. Also, there is a screen oil filter at the banjo to head.

Probably missing this plug.

The Evo IX Cylinder head has two of these plugs.
