Yes it is an air leak, could explain why the tune seems way off. It may be the fix your problem but no promises

yes, put the bolt through the rocker then put rtv on the bolt right below the rocker. but not a **** ton because it will just get into the intake runner.

Do NOT put red loctite on the rocker arm bolts.

I use a combination of permatex thread sealant and blue loctite on my rocker arm bolts.
