Engine Cooling problem
1997 Chevy Malibu 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 190k miles

when the car is running it sounds like there is an air leak and its leaking water/coolant, I changed a few hoses but its not coming from any hose that I can see its coming from a metal piece under the throttle body. It builds presure and releases when I open the cooland resivoir. now is idling real rough and not really drivable. I heard bad/blown gasketof some kind could this be? please let me know thank you for your time.
