hard to tell. look at it during the day. look in between the exhuast manifold and the block itself. if its leaking form there u should be able to see it, and smell it. happened to mine last winter. so i got a copper exhuast manifold gasket. now its good.

yea, but if the exhaust manifold itself starts to leak shouldn't it show an ecu error on your dash??(considering there is a drop in pressure in your exhaust manifold..the exhaust gas sensor should be giving abnormal feedback to the ecu), what about the gasket mating the manifold to the turbo?
