Coolant leak

[Cbautch22]

Last week driving along I blew the heater hose line, nbd replaced that and did a coolant flush. No leaks! Until car got to temp and a small leak on passenger side dropping on to the exhaust, took it for a drive and felt a spray of coolant on my drivers gas pedal! Then smoke out of the vents, oil has no coolant and coolant has no oil. Heater core? If so is there a way to bypass it, car is summer only car regardless.
Thanks for the help.

Passenger's side leak could be lower hose, water pump or bypass pipe. Driver's side leak just could be the hose clamp isn't tight enough on the newly replaced heater hose (I had this happen once). Steam out of the vents could only be a heater core leak though. I would find the other leaks first and see if you still have steam out of the vents.

The smoke out the vents and coolant on your gas pedal sounds like a ruptured heater core. You can loop the two hoses that connect to the heater core to bypass it; Take them both loose at the firewall, and connect one to the other. You'll need a suitable fitting like a Dorman 47093 (1/2"), 47094 (5/8"), or 47095 (3/4"); I can't recall exactly what size those hoses are.
