I have never heard of it going away or slowing when the intake gasket seal leaks, get it fixed.

Re: Need Help Fixing Oil Leak

Its really not that hard of a fix. It only takes about an hour to have the intake off if that. If you don't want to fix it the right way you could try cleaning the back of the intake and block off real good. Then smearing silicone all over the back and hope it stops.
