White milky oil on oil cap. Lower intake manifold gaskets

OH CRAP! There they go...figured just as much as soon as I bought wheels and tires...

Is there any kind of walk through or guide to changing the gaskets? I searched the forum, but no results...Me and a friend who is going to automotive maintanence school are going to try and knock it out in one day. It doesn't seem TOO hard if we are careful. I don't want to attempt it without a thurough guide, though.

hmm...this seems like a more difficult job than what some people made it out to be. Good thing my dad knows a pontiac dealership mechanic who said he would do it on his own time for under $500

$500 is a bit cheap....

Its not realy any harder then most intake jobs.
Comes apart great and in no time, its retorqing everything that takes time and precision.

Though I've changed a few 100 on 3.1's & 3.4L so I can say its easy
