I think I have solved the problem. The intake manifold and the valve covers were loose. I wonder what else I'm supposed to torque after 12,000 miles? Oh, I know...Everything else. I've always wanted to take my valve covers off to admire what kind of rocker arms the old Roush has. Turns out they are Scorpion rocker arms. I didn't understand the way the valve covers have a "lid" you can remove without removing the whole valve cover. I assume this makes it easier to service the rockers. I'll try to insert a picture or two....

Now drive for awhile and see what else leaks now before I dive into a undercarriage serious grease removal process. I should have fixed this a LONG time ago! Thanks for all the help with this issue.
