Wet coils passenger side

Well i finally got a chance to pull the cops on the passenger side of the motor and they are wet with antifreeze just like the drivers side.....Anyone know how it could be getting in on the pass side?

Come out of the firewall below the cowl and above the engine. There are two, one connects from the firewall to the heater fitting on the intake.

They are a pain to replace as they have the quick coupler fittings, need a special tool to remove them. I replaced mine and used worm drive clamps on the new hoses.

Just went and checked out both hoses and both seem to be dry and no signs of leaking....When would they leak? With the heater on?
