5.0 Coolant Leak - T connector

Looks like I've got the same/similar leak with that dang T connector.

Here's what it looks like running... You can see the drips in the first 5 seconds.

I saw the other thread about it but I think mine is leaking at the other side.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/BRAND-NEW-OEM-THERMOSTAT-HOUSING-T-CONNECTOR-2011-2013-FORD-F-150-MUSTANG-/331485379210?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d2e117a8a&vxp=mtr
In this picture, it would be off the left side of the highlighted yellow portion based on what I've seen. And I see no gasket listed. Am I stuck buying the whole assembly?

Thoughts?

Look at the IPC on Tasca Ford's website. A guy from there posts on here and can help you out. They have always been good to deal with.

I think I found the part actually. That site is great.

Looks like it's the upper hose seal.

Because that elbow on the upper hose...

Was it the rubber seal? Because that's where mine is leaking.

2014 f150 v8 5.0 coolant leak

Hi all
today I noticed that my truck sounded different, there was a small noise like a grinding noise coming from the engine compartment, when I opened the hood I also noticed that under the rad hose by engine it was wet, also reservoir was empty. took 2 jugs to fill it,

Any help would be appreciated

Did you ever figure out what the problem was? It happened to me today!
