I've done some searching, to no real avail. The problem I'm having is on m 57' Fairlane, when I'm cruising under acceleration it sounds like a lifter tapping or an exhaust leak (More like an exhaust leak). While parked and slow revving I hear nothing from the exhaust. But one thing I noticed is there is air coming through the back left (Driver) side of the intake manifold. There's a little hole roughly 1/4" coming out of the intake manifold and is pushing out air. I'm thinking this may be what it is. I highly doubt Ford made a hole in the side of there 4 barrel intake manifold just for kicks and giggles.



I'm trying to find a picture to show you guys what I'm talking about :-/



Anyone have any idea what I'm talking about?
