[s-cars] Coolant Leak

[djdawson2 at aol.com]

Other possible sources are the little plastic nipple that comes out of the back of the block, and the end of the after-run pump.  If it is a slow leak, and not the engine consuming it because of a headgasket seep, you should be able to find the evidence... goey stuff accumulating... the color of your antifreeze.
Good luck.

Don't know about a dye, but have you tried putting it up on a hoist and 
removing the belly pan?

Common places to look (other than the obvious) are the water pump, coolant 
return line from turbo that wraps around the front of the engine and under the 
intake manifold.

Also, remove the plastic cover by the wipers and look at the heater control 
valve.
