You can remove the plenum and inlet manifold to replace it. Are you sure its leaking from that pipe? Is there coolant leaking from the rear of the valley? If so, its probably the water pump. The waterpump leaks and fills up the valley between the 2 heads and leaks down the back. Have a look at the timing case from underneath and i dare say you will see coolant there also.
