I have a coolant leak where coolant is pooling up on the intake manifold, I cant make out where it is coming from. Any thoughts?

Dave, it is a common problem that develops in time on all L98s. If I remember correctly, it has to do with the dissimilar metals (aluminum heads and iron block) and corrosion of the intake manifold gasket.
Good luck.

Does the same hold true for Head gaskets?

Has any one changed the Block Heater ? Mines leaking since I flushed the system. That figures! Anyway, I want to replace mine with a soft plug, since it looks the heater occupies a plug location. Am I all wet?

They don't seem to pose a problem. As for the block heater, I can't help ya Muddy.
