Was this pitting on the surface? I wonder if it could have been left over gasket material. I would pop off the manifolds/headers, and pressurize the coolant system. Is there bubbling in the coolant system?

What engine is this ? Gen I, II, III or LS ? If you are sure it is coolant, have you pressurized the system yet? Nothing cleans like hot antifreeze! Pull the plugs and look for some clean or wet plugs if you don't have a system pressure tester. Give us more info on the engine.

Best way to post pics is Photobucket. Upload your pics there, then copy the IMG code and paste it here.

Oh, and I moved your thread to a better section, you may get more responses here.

Call Autozone & ask if they have a coolant system pressure tester in their tool rental program. Usually pay a fee up front but when you return it you get your $ back. Pressurize your cooling system and see if it will hold pressure for 5 minutes. This is a basic test but a good place to start.
