What kind of gaskets are you using between the RA exhaust manifolds and heads?

Good questions. If it's not the windage tray or the oil pan, it COULD be an exhaust tick. That would be something that the builder would not have seen. I built a new motor for my Silvy, and during the first test drive the pass side manifold bolts were a tad loose. I stopped at a red light and I'm hearing this tic tic sput sput tic tic noise. Tightened the manifolds and it went away.
I'd check the manifolds for cracks, check the head mating surfaces and reseal with new gaskets.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
