What is your question?
Coolant appears to be leaking around the horizontal 10 mm head flanged bolt passenger side behind the air conditioner compressor close to the harmonic balancer. When I described it to a dealer he said it was main bearing horizontal bolt. 24505576. Odd if it's a main bolt that it would be leaking coolant. Temped to remove and put gasket maker on the flange. Any help would be appreciated.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND having leak pinpointed by using uv dye leak detector and a black light 'while' pressurizing system with pressure tester. Suspect actual coolant leak 'source' is elsewhere - running down front of engine..
There are TWO 90° heater hose connectors that commonly leak - one is at front of intake manifold - the other is at the BELT TENSIONER .. Also the water pump or intake manifold itself may be the culprit.. **HANDS-ON** testing is required. Good luck!
