Re: coolant leak
cracked coolant elbow that runs in that location. It is a black elbow that usually snaps on people when they remove their intakes. $5 at the local autozone

Re: coolant leak
Not sure if you got this done or not but here's what I remember.
Disconnect battery.
Take your serpintine belt off.
Take alternator off.
Take belt tensioner assembly off and you'll see the elbow you'll have to replace.
Now replace the elbow and reassemble everything.
