Default 2005 Silverado 1500 Oil leak from topof engine?

Howdy,

I have a
2005 Silverado Truck
4 Wheel drive
5.3
1500

In the last few days I've noticed a n oil leak that seems to be leaking under the intake manifold towards the back top of the engine. Just curious if anyone here has dealt with this before and where the problem could be originating from?

Also, are there any FREE online Chevrolet 1500 trucks "HOW TO" guides as far as tearing this area apart? I think Chilton or other manuals online cost lots of money. I called a local shop and they wanted about $800.00-$1500.00 to fix it, and I can not afford that at this time....or any other time, for that matter.

I thought maybe the valve gasket cover has blown.

Thank you for any help anyone can give me.

I cannot remember if they moved it on your model... if it has the oil sending unit there
it maybe leaking.
