Coolant Leak ?

Post by Pat »

OK I was out of town on business and came home to a puddle of coolant under my truck. At first inspection I saw the fluid driping off the starter. When I got under the truck I noticed a line of fluid running along the rear of the head gasket. I checked the heater hoses and they are fine. My question is Is there another possible cause for this leak other than a blown head gasket?
