2008 5.4 coolant leak on intercooler in/outlet ports

Hi, new member here with a dilemma. Truck is an 08 5.4 3v foose edition. Had 11yrs now with no issues & never did any upgrades,66,000 miles. Noticed a small puddle under my truck for the past 2 days & traced it back to behind the supercharger unit where the coolant lines connect to the intake. Pretty tight back there but tried my best to dry & check if was the hoses. Most likely will pull the top off this weekend to get a better look. Anyhow , it seems that it actually seeping up out of the 2 metal elbows that look press fit into the intake. Found the manual online & looks like they are part of the upper intake & not replaceable? Is this correct? I won’t be totally sure until I pull the blower off. Has anyone had this issue & that can help me remedy the problem would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Manual pic but the green area on elbows are where I think it’s leaking from.
