that's were the heater core hoses get connected so you get heat inside the van and they're famous for rusting, then leaking so you'll have to get a new or used heater core and change it..it's not a big job you may want to be able to do it yourself but be sure you do not spill anti freeze on the ground because it may poison any animals that live around your place ..it's sweet and animals like to lick it, then they die..so be carefull..and a used heatercore should cost you anywhere from 35 to 70 dollars..good luck and let me know if you need any help..

the 3.0 has a tube that's pushed into the intake manifold over the trans. Drain the liquid, remove the screw securing the pipe and replace the O ring that seals it. If you take the air intake tube off 1st it makes it easier to see. be sure to clean the opening the tube goes in before installing the new seal. A little white lube helps but you shouldn`t need it. Ps. the water pump is on the other side
