Message If you look at the Pic.. the Metal Tubes running Vertically on the Left and Right of the Big Rusty Valve in the Center ( EGR Valve ) are the Coolant Lines going to the Heater Core in the Cabin.. Off the Big Vert Tubes are Two Little Tubes on each pipe.. these are going to the T-Bodies as heating water..

My money says either a Steel Tube has rusted out, or is somehow leaking where it goes to the Coolant hose.. Either the Big hose or the Small hose.. or a hose is actually bad..

Clutch needs to be fixed.. no problem..

I see two issues here, and I do not see how one will make the other one simpler to do.. the Clutch is done from below.. and the Coolant hoses are done with the Plenum off.. I've been able to touch the hoses on the back of the motor in a 2+2 NA, but I've not been able to do any 'Usefull Work' on them ..

So i see a tranny Pull for the Clutch, and a Plenum Pull for the leak.. When you pull the plenum, do the 'T-Body water Bypass', so it will reduce the Hoses under the Plenum..

The 'Two big metal Pipes' that are left and Right of the EGR Valve, will have 'Little Tits' on them for the T-Body water.. that will need to be plugged.. OR.. NEW Replacement tubes are avalable that already have the Tits Removed..

Think your looking at some money here..
