Rebuilt Heads 3.9 still losing coolant
Ok ripped apart the 3.9 I pulled outta my 95 disco and pulled off the intake and then pulled off passenger side head, then driver's side head
As I was pulling off the driver's side head a ton of coolant comes pouring out ... (this motor has been tipped over, and tons of stuff to drain out all fluid. So i'm guessing it was stuck in a cylinder.
Noticed the intake ports on the cylinder head had antifreeze 'gel' on the walls ...
Noticed the same intake port on the lower intake plenum has this same 'green gel'
Does this mean somewhere my intake is cracked and not my block ?
Appreciate the response.

Appreciate the response.
If you remember my past posts you commented on ...
I had the heads completely rebuilt, magnafluxed, pressure tested and valves grinded ... new gaskets (composite) and stretch bolts ..
Any other suggestions ?

Yes there is the same coolant 'gel' on the 'matching' intake port that was bolted to the head ...
same port in both were covered in anti-freeze 'gel' im trying to say.
