Coolant loss

I seem to have lost a lil coolant over a week time period, the coolant was pretty nasty so I just flushed it and put new coolant in it, I drove it the past 2 days and have not seen any coolant loss, Im scared where the coolant might be going, Oil looks good and uncontaminated is it possible for coolant to leak out of intake manifold?? therse wet stack on the front and rear, any opinions?

Re: Coolant loss

yes there is coolant flowing thru the intake. it will be normal for a little more coolant to be used in high temps. but the wetness in front and back of the intake could be oil residue.
