        Jim, I had one here last  week with the same drip.  I eventually
traced it back to the weep hole on  the water pump.  I ended up replacing the
water pump, all the hoses and  metal pipes to and from the water pump and oil
cooler along with the O-ring  between the cooler and block.  If your going in this
area do all that's not  been touched for greater security over the long haul.

of course, there's one more thing wrong so I can't  drive it.
There is a drip coming from the bottom "corner" of the oil  cooler.
Hoses look dry (they're new) and I can't see anything leaking  from
them. I have another part to swap in. I can tell it's tight  but
possible. I have another nut to use for a jam nut to get the pipe  out
if that will help.

Anything I should know before I start this  awful job?<<<<<<<<<
