    Alright, I bought a donor truck to get the motor out of, it was an 87 EFI, mine's a 89. I decided to go carb so I bought a shiny new Offenhauser intake and a Weber 38. After getting it all hooked up, I have a very odd oil leak. I noticed when I removed the original intake that there appeared to be a little oil come out of one of the bolt holes, I didn't really pay it any attention. This hole is one that the offenhauser doesn't use to bolt up, so it was left open. When my truck runs it skeets oil out of this bolt hole. Anyone had this issue?

    Either figure out a way to put a bolt in there or tap the hole to 1/8" pipe and put an allen plug into it.
