At least you know that much. A leak is much worse than no heat.

On my car, the hose coming out of the thermostat housing runs back along the head, around the carb, and back up to the heater control valve. I think this is how Opel used to run them. I found that making that 90 degree turn put a heater hose right under the fuel bowl or fuel line.
