Antifreeze and oil

I think I have a problem. I was pushing snow this week after th big North Dakota blizzard and I thought it would be a good idea to check the oil and antifreeze. Both are a little low. No biggie. I decided to add oil and antifreeze. Today I started the truck to go fill up on gas and I decided to pop the hood when I got back. On the intake by cylinder 1 there was a small pool of oily antifreeze. Near cylinder 5 & 7 there was a small pool of oil. Now my questions is does this mean I have a bad gasket or could the intake be cracked. The truck has a fresh 427bb where all the cast iron was checked for cracks by the machine shop before assembly and it did not leak for almost a year until now. I can change an intake without too much trouble but I do not have another cast iron intake lying around. Thanks guys.
