I dismantled my intake manifold from my v8 and there is oil inside what could be the problem? The rubber gasket is broken and in bad condition, I can’t get a new one here in Venezuela, can I use the old one in combination with silicone gasket or liquid permatex aviación?

Also the flaps are stuck

Do you know why there is some oil inside the manifold, is that because there is a vacuum leak?

All my vacuum tubes are broken but the engine runs good

When I have everything ready I will post the results. Thanks for your advice.

I saw it in YouTube, I’m going to open it first because here in Venezuela the Pcv valve cost € 100

And the intake camshafts are dirty and it looks that the don’t have enough lubrication, is that normal?

Ok I will post a foto. Next year I go to Europe and buy everything I need. Kit timing belt here cost almost €600

When I bought the car the couldn’t tell me what oil was inside and didn’t had enough oil so I changed the filter and oil. The situation here in Venezuela is a problem that’s why the people use cheap oil and parts, I don’t now what to do, use an engine flush? They don’t recommend that.

The engine runs good, I put a oil pressure gauge and the oil pressure is very good, the engine has 100.000 km.
