The heater core is like a mini radiator in the dashboard that has cabin air run through it for cabin heat. There are hoses in the engine compartment that typically link the engine near the water pump to the firewall nipples for the heater core.

Are you overfilling the overflow bottle ? It should only be filled up about halfway in the bottle itself. It shows the "MAX FILL" mark. It's only about halfway up the bottle. If you overfill it, when the car heats up the system is going to expand and it will overflow. If you aren't overflowing and the car isn't overheating you could have a blown headgasket. You should do a compression test.
