That's where the oil gathers- never said it leaks from the bolts under the carb( as in the ones that hold down the carb) but it will leak from the intake bolts, as well as front & rear valley pan seals, and still run.

i was talking about the first post and i didnt say it wouldnt run i said it wouldnt run good because you'll should have a vac leak, if oil can get passed the intake gasket then vac can to. air will go places that oil wont.

I have a problem with oil coming from the intake bolts under the carberator. Does anyone have a trick to stop this from happening?It is a 350 engine with an aluminum intake.
