That is the lower intake manifold. From the pictures you sent it looks like the lower where it meets the block.

Yes it is, but the lower intake has to be removed to replace the gaskets. The ends where it meets the head they use a sealer. They use RTV between the block and the manifold.

This is the gasket set I bought from Fel-Pro, my mechanic told me the intake manifold gasket did not come with the set, but I am pretty sure it is in included. Which one of these is for that lower intake you are talking about?

That is a headset and yes, the ones in the middle are the ones you need. They are blue with the black end pieces.

Took it to my mechanic this morning, turns out it is the camshaft position sensor, it is the whole unit, the synchronizer, there is engine oil seeping out from where the synchronizer goes into the engine block. Is there some sort of gasket or O-ring for that part?

Yes, there is a seal that keeps the oil from coming out. You can just change the o-ring seal.
