Be some time till I can figure this out. I'll repost when I find it. Thank you
The photo you posted looked to me as leakage running down from above the cam plug. Either that or a shadow(s) from the flash. And as was previously stated, an interior coolant leak shouldn't show on the main cap as it does. Chances are (get 'em Johnny Mathis) that it was an external leak, but you never know.





Please keep us informed, on this thread if possible.
