Think it's bad news

but I have a coolant leak just above the rear upper exhaust bolt. I am guessing it is a seal on the engine?
it looks like it is coming from the intake manifold. I did remove the intake manifold but when I did I didn't see any cooling passages in it.

Any info would be helpful but it doesn't appear to be good news.

There is a nipple on the top of the block that feeds the Thermo-wax. It could very well bee leaking

i think TII's have a coolen passage in the lower intake manifold, also a broken tension bolt could cause what your describing possibly, most likly its the coolent passage in the LIM, or what banzi said.
