Well, I just got kicked in the nuts...

There's little oil passages in the cylinder heads that have simple little plugs in them to keep oil from coming out. They hold back full oil pressure. Well, when the heads were assembled at the machine shop, these were NOT SEALED! They are pissing out oil whenever the car's running. Basically, it looks like I may have to pull off the entire upper plenum, and the turbo boost pipes, to get to these things and seal them up. About another 5 or 6 hours worth of work...

dammit
