Well, if is from normal use, chances are intake manifold gasket. Don't think it's a freeze plug from what you say about antifreeze at the base of or around the head - the freeze plugs are physically below that level on/in the block. If it were a head gasket leaking, you should be experiencing overheating, but didn't mention overheating. Sounds like an intake manifold gasket from what you're saying. And as far as heater hoses and connectors are concerned, well could have a problem with a hose or fitting going to a heater core, and is just washing/spraying/dripping on the back of the motor at or near that low point. Been a while sine I screwed around with Chevy's, but heater hoses were always connected at the front of the intake manifold, just below radiator hose gooseneck, not the rear of the motor/intake manifold. Sounds like some of the posts are saying those connectors have been relocated to the rear - could be, but I don't see it, but could be. Check your oil for antifreeze too. If turns out to be an intake manifold gasket, chances are is leaking antifreeze down into the oil galley and lifters/lifter bores located under the intake manifold itself, from there gravity takes right down into the crankcase. You don't want antifreeze in your oil or in/on your mechanicals.

So I pulled out the 2 old yucky looking magne
