It appears you have a coolant line that feeds through the intake and throttle body.

That port in the head is probably a press fit with some type of sealant. It's got to come off and be reset.

A lot of people who don't live in cold climates have the V8 coolant place disconnected. The one on my truck was disconnected by a PO and it's never been a problem. You could possibly do the same.
