Has anybody experienced a bad oil leak under the manifold with oil sitting on top of the block valley? Thanks

Yep - That'd be my first guess.

I thought it might be that. I just bought the car and noticed lots of oil in the valley and under the car. I not familiar with that motor and thought it had some oil lines underneath the manifold to feed different parts of the block. I know bad valve gaskets leak down by the exhaust manifold, the cam must be throwing the oil up.
Thanks for the reply.
