had the same problem, on 67 GTA, with rpm intake. i did not use the cork ends, had totake off intake and reseal he ends, they have a rubberized silicone that adheres much better, i just lasi a bigger bead on the rail, and then come up the intake surface a ways, stay away from the oil return holes. redid mine about 3 weeks ago, no drips what so ever now. on most rebuilds i put about 1/4 inch bead on the end rails, found on the FE's have to lay 2 1/4 in beads on top of each other you may have extra that oozzes out but that can be cut in a few days with a sharp razor knife, one case in engine building where more is actually better..
