Is this a 94/95 5.0? If so it sounds like your gonna have to pull the timing cover over and put a new gasket in there.

It

s coming out of a bolt hole
Im not exactly sure how the water flows through on the 96-98 but my guess is still a gasket issue. Post some pictures to help try and give a better answer
