I am very leery to replace that though, they seemed completely fine when I put them on...? Any advice? It is not the head gasket. If your head gasket was leaking coolant it would go through your combustion chamber and not your crankcase. If you are getting oil through the crankcase it is the intake manifold hands down. It is a cheap fix.

Well I was getting white smoke out the tailpipe as well.
So I replaced the head gaskets, and intake gaskets.

Fired it up tonight, within a few seconds, milky oil again. I'm really hoping that it's residual coolant in the crankcase... Somehow... I'm a wishful thinker.

I was going to just run it for a while, then drain the oil and replace the filter, and refill. But I think i'd end up doing that forever.

I think i'm going to go buy a pressure system tester, and then try that. It's tricky to find an internal leak though eh?
I guess if it doesn't hold pressure, then maybe I'll be able to hear a hissing sound, if it's real quiet out.

Tried a mechanics stethoscope yet?
