Ditto on pablos' suggestion about the pressure test. You'll see where the coolant is leaking from right away.

My guess, is that it's seeping out where the plastic tank meets the aluminum core on the radiator (that's where mine leaked!) I added a "tube" of Aluma-Seal (About a buck and a half) and the leak went away.

Good Luck!
