I can see a spot where it is burned looking at 24 seconds into the video but I don't know what that is that is leaking... (it's below the alternator, I stuck my arm into the back of the smoking engine with the camera phone to get a shot of it lol) does anyone know what that is that is leaking, would tightening that bolt help possibly? It is right near the back spark plug on passenger side.
Yeah, definitely looks like a valve cover leak. I don't think an intake manifold would leak much oil at all and more like would cause a vacuum leak with a rough idle and possible coolant leak and if you are really unlucky, into your block.
Agree with zerialz, hard to tell from your video, but if you try just tightening a bolt make sure you know what the torque setting is and use a torque wrench. Over tightening is bad, too.
Another thing - include your year and engine size in every post. Maybe this site has signatures for this, can't remember.
looks like where crossover meets rear head/exhaust manifold
