Having a strange issue. I seem to be leaking oil all over the exhaust manifold flange where it meets the head. It's I will post a picture in a few b/c they're on my phone and I'm currently on my computer.

I changed the valve cover gasket and it's not leaking it used to sweat and also had a bad cam seal (not the plug. The seals behind the cam gears). I changed those also with OEM gaskets. The leak seems to have stopped at those places. I was letting the car idle and I could see the flange starting to look wet. Above the flange is dry and nothing is leaking from the cams or distributor. I took the manifold off and the ports look dry. I thought maybe a valve seal was the problem. I also pulled my plugs and they are all dry as well.

I ran my finger inside the ports of the turbo manifold and they all seem dry with only carbon inside. The manifold gasket was wet when I removed it and I had to dry the head where the gasket sits. I'm kind of stumped as to what to check next.

 

 

Is this just a normal exhaust leak at the gasket?

 

After replacing all these seals from the previous leaks did you pull the manifold off and clean all the oil up from there?
If not this could just be residual oil coming out of the gasket from the heat.

 

Must have been residual oil or the gasket. I swapped the gasket with another one I had laying around and been clean and dry every since. Finally pesky oil leaks fixed!
