SMOKE!!!

What is the color of the smoke?

the smoke is a white to a greyish color. it might have had alittle of blue but im not sure. i dont recall 4sure seeing any blue at all.

Check the PCV valve. The engine temperature is it getting hotter than usual?

Have some one start it up and raise the rpm to 2500- look at the engine. Probably its still leaking oil and dropping on the exhaust manifold-look behind the distributor and front of the intake-

Something tells me that the rubber gasket slip off or the end to it is not sealedwhen re-installing the intake manifold

Try retorquing it down follow the correct pattern and ft lbs.

ok i have done that and it still smokes really bad, like i had done nothing. and it does leak oil really bad all over the driver side of the moter on behind the motor on the passenger side of the truck.

Check the oil pressure sending unit its right beside the distributor and recheck the valve cover gasket.

That's the only plact it will leak oil from unless you your rear seal is gone. Gotta look at it good.
