Oil in the bolt valleys of the lower intake?

[Pontiacman76]

I removed the upper intake and there was oil pooling in the inside bolt areas. I was told thats not good at all.....I was told that the lower intake could be cracked due to the last owner or so over tightening the bolts.. i have no other explanation as to why oil would be up there.... I'm seriously stuck. Any help will be greatly appreciated....Thanks

its normal.

just dry it up. its oil getting past the pcv valve, which is normal for these cars. mine has it when i take off my UIM

yea them two bolts are hard to see so normally u would pry....then u will see them when the prying doesnt work. these are pretty strong. i doubt its cracked, its normal oil gettin passed the pcv. u dont want to see any chunks up in the oil though...hehe
