have cooling question

ok,,,,i have a coolant leak,,,,,,,i put some stopleak in it and it fixed it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,for 1 day.

anyways, i cant see the leak but i can hear it,,,,,,,,,now there is a little puddle of water under the intake right behind the water temp sending unit. now, i know she is leaking from somewhere under the intake,,,,,,,,,,and my question is,,,,,,
Other than a leak from between the blocks,,,,is there a spot under there that the water could possibly be leaking from other than the block.

Im not even going to attempt to try to fix the leak if its the block,,,but if it an intake leak or something like that ill do it
thanks
Brent

What about the water hose that runs off of the rear side housing nipple, up top?

Wanyne88n/a could be right. i had a leak like the one u have. I had forgot to connect that hose after a engine swap and i had a little puddle under the UIM. just take the UIM off and see...it only takes about 20mins or less to do it.
