... pressure tester showed me exactly where leak was coming from...

easiest way is remove intake manifold from the head ,disconnecting all sensors..
you can re-use intake manifold gasket as long as it looks ok but suggest using a razor and cleaning off the head then the intake manifold... and YOU NEED TO LOOSEN THE COOLANT LINE TO REMOVE AND REPLACE THAT FUKIN HOSE. which is held on by 3 size 12's under distributor. DO NOT BEND ANYTHING OR YOU WILL LOOK STUPID.
Very easy
suggest drinking red bull

Exact same hose that I had to repair on my car 3 days ago. Leak was right under the clamp. In fact, it was from the clamp. Possibly overtightened. Very unnoticable.

Intake manifold off makes job easy. Didn't have to loosen the coolant hardlines in my case. The hose bent and slipped off fairly easily.
