What is your question?
I was putting radiator stop leak into the radiator and I had to run the engine for 45 minutes And while I was doing that, the bleed holes broke, and the coolant was shooting all over the right of the engine

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! YIKES! Sounds like your QX56 just had a coolant shower! First things first—turn off the engine to prevent overheating and further damage. Once it’s cooled down, you’ll need to replace that broken bleed hose and refill the system with coolant. It’s a good idea to flush out any leftover stop leak while you're at it, as it can clog up passages over time. Stop leak should only be used in an emergency nd not as a repair. After the repair, make sure to properly bleed the cooling system to avoid air pockets that could lead to overheating.
