Ok so it seems that it is the manifold gasket leaking but it is brand new and is not jamming or anything when being installed and the bolts are pretty tight. I cannot think of anything other than the two surfaces are not clean.(but I did sand and clean them) I'll pull it all of again tomorrow and see what's up
