The Ford Barn

I have been foolin with my water system. I flushed it last fall with vinegar and have been chasing some leaks. Some Bar's stopped the radiator leak but I still have a small drip right over the starter. So exactly over the starter that the water drips down both sides of the starter after I park. This is a drip leak, not a stream. Right above the starter is the exhaust manifold. The edge of the head/block line feels dry to the touch. I have not touched the head nuts in years. Do I pull the starter and get a good look; try tightening the head nuts of forgt it?
