Strange Coolant Leak Problem 200

It has been a VERY long time since I have posted. I have just been swamped with work and life in general and I apologize for that. I have a 1990 245 with an M-47 (five speed transmission).

I have a coolant leak that ONLY occurs when I am driving. It seems to be coming from one of the hoses under the intake manifold. But again, it only happens when I drive the car. It does not spurt out coolant when I am idling and just revving the engine. Also, it seems to take about 15-20 minutes of drive time to cause the coolant to be sprayed all over the underside of the intake manifold. I checked the Power Steering unit and it seems to be as dry as dry gets. I would appreciate any advice and/or help with this particular problem. Thanks in advance.
