It will leak coolant just like it did before you installed a new gasket and you would have wasted time and money as you will have to take it apart again and replace not only the gasket but that cracked head.

Why would antifreeze leak from intake?

I had that happen once. That's a bad thing. That's either cracked head, blown head gasket, or cracked block.Not necessarily. The intake on some vehicles, especially late models, the coolant circulates thru the intake manifold. You could have a leaking hose or leaking manifold gasket. You would have other problems like cooant in the oil or oil in the coolant if you had a cracked head/block or a bad head gasket.
