heater core pipe leaking?
iv had this problem since i installed my new engine. on the passenger side near the strut, there is a little clip/holder thing that holds the pipes going to the heater core and the front of the engine to the body, right around there my car is leaking and idk why its just now starting. where can i get new lines or does this sound like another problem?

When I had a leak in that area it turned out to be the diverter valve above the pass side valve cover.

the diverter valve is the black plastic housing that has heater hoses (3 iirc) going into it and a vacuum line on the top.
if it is the line, i dont believe anyone makes a new one aftermarket, but i swear i had seen someone in the classified boards selling one they had gotten cleaned up and powder coated....
