Unhappy coolant leak

kid blew a hose , the one that comes out of the fire wall, and into the block, he shut it down before it got to hot, at least the oil doesnt smell burnt.
installed the hose, got all the air from the system, but it is pouring coolant out of the back of the block, trans area, i can't see where it is comming from, car runs fine other wise...... any ideas?????? 86 rx-7, non turbo

Blew the intake manilfold to block hose. Pull the Upper intake manifold and check the hose running from the back of the block near the tranny running to the upper intake manifold bottom.

Ya there is a little post where coolant comes from the block to the heater core. I got a pic on my computer at work...
