    Just a suggestion ...

    Now don't do this for a long time.

    Take your fan belt off.

    The run your engine, this will eliminate fan clutch, water pump and alternator.

    You can't run the engine for more than a minute or two before the heat builds up.

    Didn't remember if it was or not but the fan and alternator should be belt driven.

    Hello Oscar , I doubt water pump or from crank damper area, is there is way to check,
    Turbos are fine , no air leak , no exhaust leaks , no pulley or idler pulley, no fan hub , opened valve cover yesterday looks fine, I do hear growling noise standing left of damper
    I have minor pin hole leak near coolant filler cap, saw few coolant drops on steel line goes to after cooler.
