Have you checked to see if you have a leaking hose going from the front of the engine back to the heater core in the firewall?

You need to go to a carwash with a high pressure hose. Clean it off good.
Lay on top of the engine with a flashlight and inspection mirror.
You should be able to see it. Look along the back where the head gasket is.
Also look over the intake for a leaking fitting of some kind.
