[V8] rear engine coolant leak

[gbmarc at cox.net]

Dave,

No, I actually had to undo a bolt, (or maybe it was two).
I was trying to pull the whole metal tree of pipes back so I could fit that short stubby hose back on. It was a right pain.

But that pipe disappears under a lot of hardware and it doesn't look like I can access any O-ring very easily?  Or maybe I'm wrong
Or can be accessed from the front of the engine?

Mark.
