Get a pressure tester and see where it is coming from, look under the w/pump and throttle body.

most likely the plastic pos intake gasket. Depending on how bad the leak is, stop leak might help(GM uses it). Look for antifreeze stains under the throttle body on the block. You probably smell it don't you!!
Make sure you get the air out of the upper end of the motor per instructions
