I cannot locate source of coolant coming from between the heads on my car's engine. The leak is near, but not at the top heater hose or the sensors that I can see. I have the intake manifold removed but still do not see where coolant is leaking from. Thank you for any help.

You should try a pressure test to force out the coolant at a higher speed assist in detecting source of leaks. Sometimes coolant do not leak unless pressurised as when engine operating temperature heats up.
