1998 Chevy Silverado coolant in engine?
If you are sure that it did not freeze and crack the block, Then the intake manifold gasket is leaking. That is a common problem with the vortec Chevy engines. You need to replace the gasket with a factory Chevy gasket from the dealer.
What is a reason a banshee leaks from the carburetor?
If you are referring to leaking out of one of the overflow hoses, your float is sticking. If it is leaking from the body of the carb, the gasket where the carb and float bowl bolt together needs to be replaced.

How does the Transmission retro-fit Filter on a 1988 ford Taurus GL 3.0 with axod transmission?
This question is incomplete but I will offer some thought. The transmission filter purchased from the local auto parts store has a rubber gasket attached to the tube which sticks into a port on the underside of the body of the transmission. The factory original rubber gasket tends to remain inside the port. I was told that the gasket on the replacement filter could be removed and the original gasket could remain in place to seal the replacement filter. The factory original gasket appears to be an aluminum ring overlaid with rubber and would likely require a special tool to remove. My experience with this situation is very limited and perhaps someone with better knowledge can give a more professional answer or offer advice for removing the factory original gasket. This is a completely separate issue from replacing the pan gasket.

How can a new BMW 323i gasket blow with less than 17000kms?

Should a head gasket need to be replaced more than once in a year?
Absolutely not. There is a problem somewhere such as faulty installation or possibly the surface of the head is warped and needs to be machined. A factory installed gasket is good for at least 150k.
