By intake, I assume you mean intake manifold? Typically if your intake manifold gasket is leaking, it can have one if not several of these signs. First your Engine typically will run or idle rough, due to a vacuum leak. You could see visual signs of exhaust, anti-freeze, and or oil leakage. On some Engines you might even see your oil and anti-freeze getting mixed together in your oil pan. You also could see white exhaust fumes out of your vehicle's tail pipe, due to anti-freeze in your exhaust system. These are just a few of the signs of a leaky manifold. If you re-ask the question with make, model, and engine size I could answer with more precise answers.
