My 1997 Pontiac Sunfire GT 2.4L is leaking anitfreeze from from the back side of the engine. I thought it was the water intake housing, where the upper and lower hoses connect into, I replaced the water intake housing, but it appears that it is leaking out of what I believe to be the exhaust manifold, located on the back of the engine.

Any ideas what it could be?

It shouldn't be coming from the exhaust manifold. Are you sure it isn't a head gasket or freeze plug?
