What would be the tell tale signs of a header seal leak or an intake seal leak?

Matrim:

Never waited to where "i" had "MYSTERY PROBLEMS", just changed them every TWO YEARS ...

If you have a COOLING FAN it is every FOUR YEARS ...

In to "PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE", ie:
it is no fun setting on the side of the road broke or trying to make it home with a POOR RUNNING engine !!!

HEAT kills these seals ...

"i" use SEAL,intake manifold PN 26995-86B ...

MAY THE LONG LASTING BUELL BE WITH YOU !!!

Intake seal leak:
Spray WD-40 on the intake manifold and note if there's an idle change. If there's a change then you have a leak.
