A pressure test on cooling system will show any external leaks and a sniff test (block test ) will tell you if you still have head gasket probs .Was head checked / tested when gasket replaced ?

they skimmed the head put on a new cambelt and coil pack thats all i no do you think maybee i might just have a coolant leak from a hose or something

Certainly worth a check , could be something minor as you suggest .
