Do not tighten that bolt too much or your will break it off in your block. That is not where it is leaking from that is an oil pan bolt. The coolant is coming down from up higher, probably either your front engine cover or your water pump. Still could be your head gaskets. That is why you need dye and also power wash you engine so you can actually see the leak.
