Default Leaking Intake Manifold???

Help...I have a new engine (289) that I have put about 200 miles on in the last year. I noticed a few weeks back that there was oil leacking from one of the bolts that holds the intake manifold in place. I have a Edelbrock performer aluminum manifold installed. It has about 6 bolts on the left and 6 on the right holding it down to the engine. the 2nd bolt from the front on the drivers side is oozing oil out and it is pooling on the manifold. It is not a ton of oil or a real mess (yet), but I have taken the bolt out and tried to seal it...OK for a day and then the leak is back. I used Blue RTV sealer. All the other bolts are not leaking and are completely dry. Any thoughts on this one before I go to a mechanic...
Thanks!!!
