02-2-2 FEB 02 Intake Manifold - Cross-Over Channel Coolant Seepage

i have a 99 motor in my 98 that is leaking (seeping) coolant at the thermostat housing (not a gasket issue). any ideas?
This is a very common problem with pre 2002 GT's. The plastic cross-over for the coolant will crack and cause the leak. If you replace the intake with a stock intake make sure and get one for a 2002 or newer GT(these intakes wont work if you are using non-p.i. heads) so you dont have the problem again since they use an aluminum cross-over.
