New Heater Core Leaks! 850 1997

Installed a new Behr heater core and after a few weeks, the tell-tale antifreeze (maple syrup) smell started again when turning on the heater. Pulled it and noticed just a little bit of antifreeze staining at the end of three of the tubes where they go into the plastic tank.

Has anyone had this failure? I am a little nervous about installing the replacement they are sending out since I don't want to go thru the install/uninstall too many more times. I was told Behr is a good brand but ???
Got it online at azautohaus for about $137.
