Well another new problem. I replaced my manifold and valve covers, hoses, all but the vacume line but it looks fine. seals and everything are fine as well. BUT heres the thing, on my new manifold there is a dark liquid which appears to be oil , or dirty fuel which went through some greese. its in the dip on the top of the manifold under my carb, twords the back. Could it have come through the Distributor I am wondering. The lines look good and it definately isnt coming through the valves.

There should be a gasket between the dist. and manifold. It is possible that you are leaking from there especially if your pcv gets a little clogged up.
