@treehan77 Does that run inside the firewall to the driver side? Would that be accessed behind the instrument cluster/ dash?

Yes. There's a large Allen head brass on the driver's side and a smaller one on the passenger side (have to remove the starter to see it) IIRC.@treehan77 Yeah that's what I replaced two days ago. It was leaking there on the white T, but after fixing that, and confirming that area has stayed dry, is when I started looking it this further. The white Tee was visibly leaking (I could see it drip every 10 sec or so), so I did not bother to think there was a second leak somewhere.
After fixing that and the leaking continued, I got under the vehicle and can see coolant on the driver side of the oil pan, going up towards the back of the engine.
Digging around, I have seen mention of freeze plugs having issues. Are there freeze plugs up there that I can visibly see with an inspection mirror or similar before I commit to taking off the heads?
Ah, ok. No wonder the coolant looked kinda bright?I do have dye in the coolant, which in my second video of OP shows where it's dripping from, but that's about how far up I can see.
Would a head gasket combustion leak test kit work? If not I can try and rent a pressurized tester
