intake gasket is sweating coolant?

the intake was installed and tightened with the valve covers loose and out of the way. Theres no way the valve covers are under the intake.

That picture surely suggests otherwise. Maybe the edge of the valve covers is just wedged under that lip of the intake.....but it IS under it. Regardless, it sounds like you're going to have to remove the intake anyway.
