Are you planning to cut the intake open to reach the entire runner, or just grind on what you can reach from the top?
Do all of the various gaskets look like they can be reused when you bolt everything back up?
Isn't it amazing how oily and dirty the inside of something is that is only supposed to flow filtered air!
Take some before and after pics of the internal surfaces.

I am going to pull the freeze plugs/casting access ports out and do some work inside also.
All the gaskets look mint, but I am going to get new ones. No reason not to while it is all apart.
the biggest culprit is the PCV valve pulling oil in. I am also seeing some marks from my EGR line.
Plenty of pictures to come!!
