Water pump? Coolant elbow? Confused I'd look carefully in those areas
A flashlight would be very helpfull

Coolant elbow is as depicted here, the center of the pic:
Pictures of this quality, are simply an 'invaluable teaching/learning tool'.

Can I be your friend ? LOL Thank you for the submission.

Well, it didn't leak any more coolant after last night, and it was RIGHT UNDER the water pump (thanks for the pics!!). So I took it in today, and they said that water pumps may just occasionally leak, but they couldn't see any evidence of leaking :? Either way I'm going to keep an eye on it. Oh yeah, and the coolant elbow seemed fine. So could it be just a water pump mishap, or should I still be really cautious?
