Default coolant leak

so i just got done with my egr delete after it blew up and i was filling the coolant. i got the coolant and the max level on the dgas bottle and i hear water running i figured maybe i got a little outside the bottle. well turns out somewhere just below the right bank up-pipe. it doesn't look like its coming out of the freeze plug. it looks like it might be coming right out of the block. i dont know where else it could be coming out of. any ideas?

its probably coming from the top of motor, it will normally run off the back near the starter. double check the hose connection for the cooler delete and also check to make sure the pisser tube on top of intake is hooked up, the one that hooks to the left side of degass bottle
