    Oil Leaking From Valve Cover Gasket?

    Hey guys,

    I have been having oil leaking, as well as oil burning out of the exhaust of my B7 A4... take a look at these pictures:

    Based on the oil welling up in the bolt housings, i'm guessing it's the valve cover. But why is it also welling up on top of the intake?

    I'm just wondering if replacing the valve cover gasket will fix this issue, or if there is more to replace.

    Thanks!
