If you have a radiator cap simply remove it and start the car. Make sure the coolant level is full and then run the car, if there is air in the system the coolant level will drop, refill and it should be fine.
As for where the steam is coming from you may have a loose hose. As for the intake manifold gasket, that could cause the problem but the question that I have is did you change the oil after you changed the gasket? If not change the oil immediately as you have coolant in the oil and it will damage your engine.

I checked all the hose's all was fine.I filled the Radiator
And start the car after 3mins it were overheating again.
It was spiting out boiling water from the top radiator.
I called the dealer and was told that it could be the head
