Check your intake also. Get some mineral spirits and white rag then wipe around the front and back edge of your intake. Do the same around your valve covers. Then run your engine for awhile. Take a white t-shirt and wipe around the areas cleaned and I believe you will be able to find your leak.

Intake manifold torque is around 25-30 pounds of torque while your valve cover gaskets are 10-15 pounds of torque. If you don't know the sequence to tighten your intake or heads go online and print the sequence off.
