Re: Lower Intake Manifold Gasket Replacement

That engine does look a bit of a mess. As Mustang Driver says, it looks like piston blow-by ... or it could be stopped up engine air filter, or too much EGR, or even a messed up PCV system. I would be inclined to rebuild the engine ... or, at least, remove the heads for a look at cylinder walls. But that's a different level of ball-game!
