Hell's kitchen.
You will need to replace all of your manifolds. Sorry.

I'm sorry man, I was messin with you.

You have a 94 sc300 correct? You are hearing a noise. More information is needed. What makes you think it is coming from the manifold? Which manifold are you referring to as Lex asked? Is the car running smoothly?

What makes you think its a manifold?

On the exhaust side, a bad one could sound like a tick, but other than that, a bad gasket on either side is just going to make the engine a little louder...

Could you have a water pump, belt or accessory like power steering pump or A/C compressor making noise?

Actually, Brooklyn, but not too far from Hell's kitchen , but I moved to Lindenhurst not too long ago, easier to fall asleep with no L train or gunshots through the night. Yeah, like Scott said, an exhaust leak is like a tic-tic-tic, not too likely your intake manifold is leaking, but to check, spray something aerosol around the base of the intake and see if it changes anything, if there's a leak it will plug it for half a sec and the sound can change, the idle may change for a sec, etc, but like SC300T said, more than likely it's one of the accessories. So where you from tuff guy?
