coolant pipe leaks

[m2008s]

i have probably 3 coolant pipe leaks now, thanks salt. theyre the all metal ones as i have an 84 1.9 wbx. has anyone just put good heavy duty hose in its place? let me know. its hard to find a good set of pipes, none of the junkyards have them.

if not, what else is there i can do? i have 3 leaks in the feed pipe and a leak on the front most side of the passenger side head. i thought a head gasket blew but it doesnt smoke and starts fine, i havent looked much but it looks like that its leaking from a hose or pipe or something there? its running down the side and along the bottom of the head itsself, right on the seam. according to a diagram its either the hose form the head to the T for the rear heater or the crossover pipe and the T for the rear heater. had anyone had a head leak so bad it makes a 1 or 2 inch diameter puddle on the ground within 30 mins or so of being parked? like i say, the van doesnt smoke, runs and idles fine, starts quick, etc. let me know.
