Small coolant leak

RE: Small coolant leak
Just done this on my D1 v8, coolant leaking onto the bell housing at the back. My first thought was head gasket, but simply climbed on to the engine with it running, and with a torch and mirror, looked down the back where youcan easily see the headgasket join with the block and my leak was higher up, and it was the intake gasket that had failed on the rear left corner when standing in front of the car.
Incidently, the gasket was modified at some point from a metal "crushable" type to a fibreglass / synthetic one. Total parts including all new bolts was around £35 or $70 ish to you guys.
Took about 5 hours in total to do
