I need some more help from the listers!
I found the source of my water .. I have two cracks in the block .. 
where bolt #9 and bolt #10 are in the block.  They are small hairline 
cracks that go from the stud threads to the water jackets, but they are 
visible to the eye (in fact I have pictures that show the cracks).
My questions are:
- Can this be repaired with some kind of thread epoxy or ????
- Do I find a another block and swap all my parts over?
