Which side of the car? I'd check your EGR coolant lines first. Just hope its not your lower intake gasket.

I would guess a rear freeze plug, and it's a real pita to replace.

check the hose that connects the back of the throttle body to the lower intake... its a PITA to replace sometimes too but i would bet its the source

I apologize, I should have looked first before I posted. there is no freeze plug behind the flywheel as in other V-8's. A dye test would pinpoint the leak.
