Hi Juggernaut. You're on the wrong forum for your car, this one is for the aluminium "X350" design XJ8 (and XJ6 in UK) from 2003. However, you could try searching for coolant leaks plus your model number to see what you get. The plastic thermostat "tower" on the V8 top is notorious for cracking, as is the coolant header tank
