Yikes! Water everywhere. Shut her down, and go in to see if I can
discover
the source. A cracked fitting! Dang!


.....instead of nylon, this time,

Please tell me you don't have ANY nylon fittings threaded into your
engine ................

If that is your S.O.P. even AFTER your major refit..... and major
crash fix..... and constant motor looking and fussing.....

Well, I let someone else comment.

Nope, not into the engine. It's a bypass for the water coming from and
back to the oil cooler, at the top of a hose well above the waterline;
the bypass dumps into the exhaust line, also well above the
waterline...
