Dave, don't panic yet! I have seen similar leaks when doing water pumps on cars and trucks. At our shop we use a sealant that we cover the bolt and bolt threads with and screw them in and seldom do we ever get a repeat of the leak. It is most likely a little seepage around the bolt. I can't name the product but your local automotive parts store will have it in tubes for water pump sealant. If the leak is only there and coolant is not getting in the oil, I would pull the seeping bolt and goop it up with sealer and try retorquing. Good luck from Mike in Exeter Ontario
