Default there are two coolant lines on the back of the motor that use those funky clips...

I forget if they go up to the heater core or where but it is possible that they hooked one somehow.

I know I had one of those clips on the radiator come loose after 1000-1500 miles after I put my motor back in my car. I may have not got it all the way on but I would be surprised that it would have made it this many miles in that condition.

You should be able to see them from up above.

then again I could be way off and it could be the aux pump.

Default I had this exact problem when replacing clutch - tagged the connector shown here...
