Thanks guys
the steam does come from around there , and there is a smell of coolant but i wouldnt say petrol , the pipes dont seem to hard (ie headgasket) but i do admit it does look like some kind of over preasure thing, i am quite sure but its so hard to be sure that its coming from behind a metal flat plate , i have no idea what this unit is , it loks like its fastend to the head as you can see gasket, but can not feel any bolts to take it off, i am so confused on this one
thanks again

, the leak is from that area but i dont think its the hoses, it only leaks once it gets up to normal temp, i belive and hope i am wrong but it seems to comming from the back part of the engine, just in front of the heater bypass valve , i cant see anything beacuse its up againt the bulkhead, but if i accelerarte once the engine is hot , you can see water squirting from the back of here, i have a realy bad feeling about this, as i would thing the only way you could even get and look at where the problem is would be to remove the engine, and of course this is just not viable with the value and age of car
