You will probably find one of the cylinder o-rings are leeking coolant, as the 92 series Detroit has o-rings on the cylinders.
I would advise you to change all the o-rings, if 1 is leeking, as they are dried out.When you reinstall the linners, and the head, go by the manual. IT IS CRITICAL, to get it right.

That 92 series is different to the 71 series, as it has wet liners.
Have a Merry Christmas.
