My intake manifold was leaking oil on the Dyno from the front corner where you need to run a little bead of RTV...Guy helping me told me to clean everything up REALLY good with brake cleaner, spray it into the gap - rinse repeat, then squirt some RTV into the space and put a shop vac on any hole on the Valve cover but to make sure it was a tight fit and it would suck the RTV into the gap.

Sure enough...Sucked it right in, I added a little more and did it with less suction so the RTV would stay where it was leaking.
