Question 4.6 L Oil Leak

Hey guys....just a quick couple of questions:

I have the dreaded 4.6L R/side oil leak. When I take it into the dealer should I remove my Air Raid and put the stock air assembly back on?

Also, What was the fix for the above mentioned leak.....head gasket, engine? I just want to know what to expect when I get there.

Thanks in advance....this site has been great:~)

I think its pretty standard for them to check the head and block for defects and then change the head gasket...if this doesnt work, most are getting new/fqr engines...

I had my gasket changed and it seems to have done the trick for now....only time will tell.
Best of luck
