Well i bought the car a month ago and havent driven i yet, im checking it to make sure it is safe and while checking it i noticed that the intak manifold gasket was sticking out. Now i dont know if its supposed to be like that or the person that installed it put it wrong.

I dont hear and air from there but i do see some smoke coming from around there, most likely the smoke is leaking from where the manifold doesnt have gasket.

Make sure you put the gasket in right way so you wont have to do it again.
