    You sure its coming from the intake manifold and not leaking down around it?

    It's not coming through the turbo and around the air to air, if that's what you're getting at. Just trying to say where it's coming from - it appears from where head meets block near front of engine

    I mean like leaking above it and dripping down. A lot of times a leak looks like its coming from something but its actually leaking from something above that point.

    Front of engine? Are you sure it's not the diamond seal or thrust o ring on the front of the cam? It will look like it's coming from the front of the head right behind the front cover.
