replaced flange and seal today, it had 3 glow plugs in, very strange looking, anyway, the seal was so flat it has leaked under pressure, i replaced whole thing, wired it back up, job done, then i noticed coolant after i had taken coolant cap off. from the back of the bottle there is a vertical drain type outlet not connected to anything, is it a pressure relief valve or something like that?? there were a few drips from it, nothing major.

trying to eliminate possible leak spots etc

The outlet from the coolant tank is to allow excess pressure/coolant to vent via the cap.
