My '84 Camaro Z28 with 305 H.O. engine has taken up smoking in the engine compartment. The oil trail leads up to the rocker arm covers. So I tightened all cover bolts and it still smokes (a new gasket had been put in about 3 years ago, with very little mileage since). Now I'm wondering if the oil is coming from the exhaust manifolds or maybe even the cylinder head gaskets. Obviously the manifolds and cylinder heads get progressively harder to remove. Are there any tests, tips or suggestions for isolating which gasket is failing ? Thanks.
