#7 had some so did #5, intake is cracked for reals along where the thermostat housing bolts screw in, down the whole length of that portion, intake gasket is saturated along the whole drivers side, so: gasket is FUBAR and the intake might need replacing, anyone know if a successful repair has been done with like JB Weld or something along those lines...

*edit* VIN : 1FAFP42X9XF175674

one says it only fits if VIN has X or 6, I'm rather confused on this subject...

CliffyK did a write up on a manifold repair...however, were it me, id just replace the thing. Americanmuscle.com should have all you need, PI manifold, gaskets and all.
Pretty common issue with these plastic intakes, glad you found the issue.
