Just got a 97 K1500 4X4 with 5.7 Vortec, 146K miles. I have a coolant leak that is seeping out along the passenger's side edge of the Torque Converter cover. The coolant is dripping down from the bolts (passenger side only) that hold the cover on and it is also coming out of the hole at the bottom of the cover. The coolant does not appear to be coming from the cooler lines themselves. I was going to tear into it this weekend and wondered if anyone might have some advice, suggestions or warnings. What will I see when I drop the cover? Doesn't look like there's a gasket, can't imagine why there would be if it is jst a protective cover.
