Ahhhh OK. I figured it would be common sense if you have it tore down that far to do both upper and lower. Kinda like when you replace a timing cover gasket, you replace your front seal too whether it leaks or not.
Water Pump done yet? It's not your lower intake gasket leaking. Chances are the whole problem is the water pump, unless you overheated the motor and blew the head gasket too. So have you figured out yet, why it quite loseing coolant after 1.5 quarts???
I know you enjoy giving Dave a hard time but all the answers are in this thread already. He's had the water pump changed and his problem is fixed.
Thanks for letting me know I didn't read all 13 pages. I wasn't trying to give him a hard time, he gets enough of that here. I just do that when he comes to GMSB.
Living out there in the sticks and having an older high mileage vehicle, you should consider getting you another back up vehicle Dave. Do I dare ask what ever happened with that Ford?
I still have the ford.

Then quit spending your disability check on action figures or tools you won't use and get that damn thing at least running. Even if it isn't pretty, get it running. Just like this, if your high mileage daily driver breaks down, you at least need something to get to town and get parts.
I got rid of my commuter mpg car when I was driving the tow truck all the time. Now I still have 2 running Squares. Even if I want to tear one down and do brakes, I have the other one to take the drums to the machine shop and be turned.
