Coolant leak. Could it be the fuel pressure regulator or damper bolt holes?
I have coolant pooling in the center V of my engine after rebuilding my fuel system, and I suspect it's coming from one of the fuel pressure regulator or fuel damper (which I have removed) bolt holes. What year models have the bolt(s) penetrating the water jacket, how many holes are there, and what is the size and thread pitch? My car is a 1984. I appreciate any info you can provide. Thanks.

It is fixed. Apparently, I had removed the hose clamp from the short heater core hose at the rear of the engine for some reason or another. It was probably rusted in to. I had a steady drip emanating from that hose, so a new hose clamp solved that.
False alarm, everybody.
I also suspect that the L-Jetronic cars do not have fuel damper or pressure regulator mounting holes going into our coolant passages.
