That would be me. :-)
Yes, mine was doing the same thing. It was an intake gasket leak. Your probably going through some oil as well.
Installed a new turkey tray and it solved my problem.
Felpro makes the best gasket set I've seen. Don't use the rubber ends included with the kit, they are worthless. Just run a bead of Black RTV along both ends. Be sure to use the paper gaskets against the heads, turkey tray on top of the paper gaskets. Don't over torq it down. Torq calls for 27 to 33 ft lbs on the 3/8" bolts and 21 to 25 for the 5/16" bolts.
I used 30 for the 3/8 and & 23 for the 5/16.
It's holding perfectly.
