coolant issue pic's included
So about a month ago I bought a 2004 rx8 with what I assumed was a bad coolant seal. "Blowing white smoke" no big deal should be a fairly simple fix. I remove and disassembled the motor only to find the coolant seals intact and what appears functioning properly.
It also appears to have only been burning coolant in the front rotor housing. Evident by the white exhaust port in the front iron. If anybody has any helpful information as to what else could cause this that would be great and thanks for reading my post.

I'm going to go out tomorrow and check the coolant lines that run through the throttle body. To see if the could possibly be leaking into the intake. But I doubt this to be the problem as I would think I would have seen some coolant in the intake upon disassembly.
Any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to put this thing back together without finding the cause of the problem.
