where is it leaking by. most of the time if you drop a b series in a ek with the single radiator you have to use hose clamps. that might be your problem.

If it's leaking from the timing cover it's likely the waterpump.

after my swap with the b16 i had tha same problems it turned out to be the clamp that held the hose on just get the adjustable ones and you should be good to go.
