Coolant Leak.... Intake Plenum?

To make a long story short, I have a 95 9k CSE, which I took the head off, and had some work done to it. When I put the engine back together, it ran, but cylinder #2 was burning a LOT of coolant. I thought it was probably the head gasket, so I got anoter new head gasket, and was in the process of dissassembling the head to take it off again......
When I took off the intake plenum, I noticed that it was actually a little loose. Now, There are some extra passages in it, and I was wondering if these were maybe coolant passages? If so, could the loose plenum have been the culprit with all of the coolant in the cylinder?
If anyone else thinks this may be the problem, I may just put everything back together, and see if it solves the problem.
