guys
had the cooling system flushed recently and losing about 2 litres of coolant per month. took it to the guy and he said it was a leak behind the engine housing and it would be a nightmare job.
he put some sealant in the coolant and told me to take care. is this job really difficult and what does it entail hopefully it will be ok.

It depends on exactly what is leaking. 2l / month is pretty heavy, and is going to cost a fortune in coolant!! If it wasn't leaking before, then maybe he messed up the operation, and now wants shot of it? There is a plastic intake housing on the back of the block, which is a known weak point - it might need the OS drive shaft removing to change it out.
