there is no upper intake gasket, only a front and rear
I have a 2000 Malibu, I can help you out if you can give me some more info...where on the intake manifold are you referring to?
Assuming this is a 4.3L engine, the upper intake manifold gasket would be between the upper intake manifold and the lower intake manifold.
is their a web site, that will provide me with the a print out for the intstalling of a intake manifold gasket for a 2003 chevy aenture.

the intake manifold is located on top of the engine, the piece that look like the tubbing is intertwining.
If the usual problems don't reveal the prolem have your mechanic check the intake manifold. These engines have a tendency to loosen the bolts on the intake manifold and the leak will damge the gasket. In time it will get worse.
The intake manifold bolts for a Chevy Venture typically have a size of 10mm x 1.5 thread pitch. The length of the bolts can vary depending on their specific location on the manifold, but they are generally around 40mm to 50mm long. It's always a good idea to check the service manual for your specific engine variant to confirm the exact specifications.
The only fix for a bad intake gasket is to remove the intake manifold and replace the gasket.
