if it's that much and as high up as the intake manifold, you may want to lift that manifold off and check the oil pressure sending unit, see if that is broken or loose.. something along the lines of direct pressure is awry if that much is coming out at idle.

Does the pressure gauge work? If you let it sit and idle does it leak bad enough to form a puddle in a few minutes?
Could be the oil pressure sending unit. It's on the drivers side rear of the engine.
I agree with the above post.
