Default oil leak help identify???

yeah, i got an oil leak right under my intake manifold i suppose. i cant seem to find it anywhere else. i went to advance auto parts and was told that it was the piston rings. any suggestion??? and no, its not the oil pan gasket, rear main seal, valve cover gasket, distributor o-ring, vtec solenoid at all.
