Quoted:
Intake gaskets leaking vacuum.
In the morning, take 1/2 gallon of water. Pop the hood and start the engine. Pour water on edges of intake manifold near the valve covers.
If it starts running rough, the gaskets are leaking. No you would not see coolant or anything leaking because coolant does not flow through intake.

I was going to suggest there is an outside chance it's the air intake/plenum gasket. you might be able to spray throttle body cleaner/carb cleaner around the gasket area too, if there's a leak, the idle speed will change. I'd probably guess it's an O2 sensor though, and they are usually fairly easy to replace. If it's a vortech and if it is similar to the vortech 4.3s, take that thing and light it on fire, roll it down a hill and into a large body of water. Chevy and their Vortech 4.3 intake manifold gaskets can go straight to hell.
