Unhappy 88 GTU overheat

Ok guys, I just picked up my first rotary toy and its is leaking antfreeze from under the intake runners I can't tell from where for all the steam. Any ideas and what about the infamous 90 deg hose I have heard about?

Most likely its the coolant hose that runs under the intake runners. NOT FUN to fix. Your going to have to pull up the intake.

Yeah just got the intake off and the hose had pinhole right above the nipple on the block. Well good chance to clean up some parts! Thanks for the reply.
