Unhappy Oil Leak-Head Gasket

Anyone heard of an oil leak happening intermittently when turning corners. Happened twice casuing oil to drip on exhaust manifold?

it is very common for these v-8's to have head gasket oil leaks and what is happening is that the oil is pooling somewhere after leaking from the head and when you take a turn the Centrifugal force throws the oil off.

just my guess.

welcome to the boards!
