Nope, Intake typically has nothing to do with your oil, its just air, and sometimes coolant. oil can get into a cylinder 4 different ways: 1st. Bad piston rings, 2nd. Bad valve stem seals, 3rd. Cracked head block, or piston. 4th. lastly it can be a vacuum related issue, but the oil would come from your intake then get into the head. Like if a automatic transmission modulator valve goes bad the vacuum form the engine will suck Transmission Fluid right into the engine.

Should just be the gasket but check the upper side of the cylinder head while you have it apart to see if it has problems. Intake gasket leaks will present vacuum problems, if pressure is pushing air out of the affected area then it may be the head.
