Thanks. Any likely areas to check? Or suggestions on how to pinpoint? Sorry, I am just not all that familiar with working on engines.
It's going to be difficult for us to pinpoint it for you unfortunately.
Did you use new intake manifold gaskets? Were any that you did use seated correctly.?
Check vacuum lines/hoses on the left side of the intake. Check to be sure the intake tube from the MAF sensor is connected properly and the clamps are on correctly.
Check that the part you hear the sucking coming from didn't get cracked. In a thread a while back a member had this happen to them when doing the valve cover.

That makes sense. I will go back and check everything seated properly. I struggled getting it lined up and back in place when put it back together. Thanks for the suggestions!
 
Awesome. Oddly I didn't get an alert that anyone responded to this thread.
Glad you found and identified the problem.
Post back with a final resolution if you can.
