It appeared to me that it is coming from around the far left port against the head and from the gasket area of the front of the lifter valley pan. But this area never leaked any oil before, so it could be deceiving. My smoke machine has 2 pump settings, this is on low, when it is on the normal settings, it will put out so much smoke from the whole intake area, that it will fill the engine compartment. Is there some sort of way a vacuum leak could be in the lifter valley area? Engine ran fine say above 1500 RPM. Only at an idle I noticed something off
