There is also coolant that runs through the intake manifold and plenum from a 1/4" whole on the intake side of the head between the intakes for chambers 1 and 2. I had a leak there and it ran down the block but I suppose it's possible for it to get pulled into the intake manifold as well. Otherwise the ISC valve i would definetly check. Only two places that coolant cruises around.

Why Mr. Toyota decided to deviate from his usually infinite wisdom and but a F'in coolant whole that has to run through the intake manifold I don't know, fittings and a hose seems much easier although not as clean looking...
