Default Weird (to me) coolant leak

427 side oiler (2000 miles from new/Southern) and 250 miles or so from engine out rear main seal and intake manifold gasket replacement. I keep seeing drops of coolant that seem to be coming from the adapter block for the remote (front mounted) oil cooler. But I thought this was strictly an oil passageway. Is there coolant at that intersection, or is the coolant coming from above (?? head). No evidence that it's from the galley plugs or petcocks. The arrow in the picture shows a coolant droplet, that's not coolant on the large oil line going to the remove cooler. thanx. steve (if it is the adapter plate, does anyone know the Fel-Pro gasket number I'll need to fix it?)
