Turbo!!

Quoted for truth.Most likely ur turbo lines are cracked if ur running on the stockers. Else just give them a good once over.

I hope so cuz its on the block can I just block the lines off?

When I had coolant on the block on the turbo side, it was a head gasket let. You need to get under the car at full hot and take a look see. But, do not block those lines unless you want to kill the turbo if that is in fact the issue. Those lines are steel, so I dobut that they are the issue, however.

check the freeze plugs

Take your car to a shop that can pressurize your coolant system and see where it leaks as its leaking. Could be the headgasket...might as well find out for sure by being thorough.

Any kind of way to fix that without pulling the head off?

If you HG is not sealing its either the HG or the head is warped. Either way, head needs to come off.
