Exclamation TB upgrade revealed oil in manifold- why??
So yeah it's not even good looking oil. My t-bdoy was dirtier than a prostitute when i took it off for my bored out version. I looked down where it used to be and saw some oil in corners. why is this, how bad is it? How "f'ed" am i?

its a 97...stock engine parts etc, 150k

shanks
