Greetings Bricksters:

I have recently had a replaced head gasket on my 1993 940 wagon. The head had some canyon-sized corrosion holes in it according to my mechanic, so the job was needed. Since then, I had a continued oil leak which was determined to be a bad cylinder cover gasket. Since that has been fixed, I've taken a long trip this weekend and noticed more coolant disappearing.

A quick inspection revealed that coolant is dripping out of the car (after sitting for a bit once cooled down) at the spot indicated in this picture:

This is on the passenger side, at the bottom of the radiator.
I have very little knowledge of the cooling system but am eager to rectify this.
Any advice is much appreciated, before I bring it to the mechanic for more $$ to fly out of my wallet.

Regards,
Rogue
