Default Excessive Coolant Leak and Overheating!!! Help?

Seems to be leaking from transmission vents right near the oil pan plug. But also some smaller spots in other areas up toward the driver side of the undercarriage there seems to be some possible damage to some hoses but unsure. I just replace the oil coolant cooler filter housing with the aluminum dormant one. Here are my specs from J scan at idle do any of these oxygen sensors or evap readings seem really off and can anyone diagnose the issue just from looking at these or guide me and what direction I should be looking at based off of what these reading show???? These are sitting at idle parked after driving for about 1 hour or so. Anyone that can view these specs and readings and guide me in the direction that I should be looking at will be greatly appreciated thinking that I might have messed something up with the oil filter housing and need to put new gaskets on the upper and lower intake manifold but could be a blown gasket or seal. Not sure

The post is pretty confusing. I'm not sure I have the answers for you but for everyone's sake I think we need to narrow this down. You are having a coolant leak and experiencing overheating, but then you jump to intake manifold gaskets, 02 sensors and other readings. Are you throwing some codes leading you there or is the jeep otherwise not running properly outside of the coolant leak? What kind of damage to what hoses are you seeing? Sorry, it's just a very confusing post and I'd imagine folks see it and minds get boggled and move past it. I presume you replaced the oil cooler housing due to a leak or crack on the old one. There are not many places up in that engine that you're going to have a coolant leak, and considering you just replaced that an o-ting or it not being seated properly would be my first guess as to where the leak is.
