Nebraska Kirk....if the leak is thru an erosion hole in a sleeve (usually just above the oring grooves), replace them with a new set. Two methods for keeping this from happening again: 1) install a "water filter kit" which is not a filter at all, but a cake of additive for your coolant system that dissolves over a 400 hour change interval; or 2) add DCA additive to a quality antifreeze. Cavitational erosion of sleeves is a pretty common occurence in wet sleeved engines! Hope your rebuild goes well.
