Where did you get the engine? Who built it?
Did they seal the head bolt/stud threads?
 
head gasket or lower intake gasket, cracked block,headbolts or studs not sealed properly or a head cracked into a water jacket. Have you run a really hot engine temp lately? Ran a pretty high boost on pump gas maybe? If the cars been driven like this any amount at all your bearings are most likely toast...
 
The car hasn't run at all.
The only way water would leak through the head bolts is if it was running and the radaitor was under pressure.
I have changed the intake gasket twice and it seems to be good.
Plus, when I put water into the radaitor the level never gets that high.
I think that is't the front cover, I just hope it's not the block.

Thanks
Chad
