Where is the horn relay located on a 2000 gmc safari van?

It's a relay block, just to the left of the fuse panel under the dash. There are four relays in it, two big ones on top and two small ones on the right side. It's the top one of the two small ones mounted on the right side. The reason I could never find it was that the relay I bought only had four pins, and the factory had 5 pins, one of which is useless (goes to a blank at the plug in). Only found it because the horn decided to work and I accidently had my fingers on it and could feel it clicking. I unplugged it while pushing the horn on the steering wheel and that stopped the horn.

You have coolant in the upper plenum in your 1997 Safari awd Where can this be coming from?

The air intake manifold is heated with coolant from the engine block. There are seals between the block and the intake plenum/manifold. GM had problems with these seals becoming brittle and leaking. I had this occur on my 1997 safari. The coolant ran into the engine oil and caused the Hydraulic lifters to stick when cold(sounds like bad valve). I was able to add stop leak to the radiator and this resealed the intake seals that were leaking. I was then able to add 1 quart of "marvel mystery oil" (high detergent oil) to my crankcase and run it for a couple of days. Once the lifters were cleaned up I then drained the oil and replaced. That was 100,00 miles ago and all is well no leaks no lifter problems. GM Dealer quoted $500.00 approx to rrpalce the intake seals. Hope this helps. PS Marvel Mystery oil is available at Autozone/Advance auto etc. Also for any that worry about using cooling system leak sealer you may be amazed that some auto manufaacturers actually add this to the coolant during final vehicle assembly ...to reduce cooling system leaks and hence warranty cost.
