Looks like something is up with the coolant hoses running to the heater core. Possibly cracking on the ends, or they might just need new hose clamps.

Do you know if they were replaced when the SR was swapped in?

heater core issues, start looking for the exact leak, be it the hoses or the core itself. good luck
