could be that its actually leaking from the hose? Do you see a trail or anything?

if its leaking where you say it is, sounds like a head gasket

How long ago did you do the head gasket and how long ago did you notice this?

Also is the trail coming from the hose? If so then just tighten it down more. If by chance its coming from back of the manifold then your going to have to take it off and put it on again.

hey bro any update on this. i also have a small coolant leak coming from that area. it almost seems like its coming from under the dizzy. im thinking maybe its one of the ECT sensors or something. i also have a new HG and i am still getting a small amount of coolant leakage that is running down to the corner of the block above the engine stamp. any ideas guys? thats such a hard area to work in with all those hoses and whats not running around.

how can that be a headgasket issue? intake manifold gasket would be my guess.

well mine isnt leaking in the same place as his but it kinda makes it look like the hg because the coolant runs toward the front of the motor where the engine stamp is, where you can see the little piece of the hg sticking out. i traced mine back to somewhere under the dizzy , doesnt look like the intake mani but im not positive.
