Bought my 04.5 four months ago, after getting my truck and taking it on its first good road trip i also noticed that there was a dried up coolant stain on the intake breather box, so with out a second thought i just throught on a clamp on it, glad i did.

My 2006 was dripping there too. It is a very easy fix but I can not beleive that Dodge never put a hose clamp there.
