With engine running, could spray propane gas, WD40, or starting fluid, around the intake manifolds. A leak will usually suck in enough spray to cause a noticable difference in rpm. This should help diagnose whether there's a leaking intake manifold (torn or cracked) or maybe just a loose or ill-fitting clamp.
