Coolant Ports??

I can't remember for sure, but it seems to me that the lower only flows coolant from the heads to the water neck at the front of the intake, and not to the rear. I could be wrong though, I don't have one sitting in front of me as reference. The rear MIGHT flow coolant for the heater, but don't quote me on that.
 
Yes the 4 ports on the corners of the lower intake are for coolant.

The small odd shaped ports are for EGR, however, only the port on the passenger side actually flows anything.
