Default GSR Intake manifold Leaking help

I have had a obx intake manifold on my gsr for over a year now. Just the other day it started leaking radiator fluid which i noticed below the IM. Any ideas on what I should check? This is also causing the engine to OVERHEAT badly. Radiator is new along with hoses and thermostat. any help would be appreciated

bad gasket? sometimes when installing the new piece, little pieces of the old gasket get stuck on the surface of the head. you have to scrape every piece off with a razor blade else it will eventually cause a leak. I can check it over for you depending on where you live. I was a professional mechanic for multiple dealerships. I would suggest running a pressure test and see exactly where the leak is coming from, whether the IM or maybe a hose.
