  • Big -main coolant to and from the radiators.
  • Medium -heater hoses.
  • Small -radiator bleed lines attached to the top corner of each radiator.

That's all else there is.
Many of those lines are exposed now. Before I tear into it I'm going to put some more water in it and run a more extended test. If there's a leak source besides the HVAC drain, I'll find it. I hope.
