    the spots it is coming from nowhere, is it where the casting meets the block?

    i think it could possibly be coming from the thermostat housing gasket so replace that n see how things go

    thermostat housing is at the back of the motor....


    did you use a genuine pump or aftermarket? still possible it could be defective,

    but check around the where the water outlet from the motor etc is, could be out from around there
