antifreeze leak when motor is turned off 900 1994

The other day I noticed a small puddle of antifreeze under my 94 940, nothing major, and I could not find the source so i figured I'd better keep an eye on it.

Today after driving the 16 miles home from work and shutting down the car, I saw antifreeze dripping down somewhere from what appeared to be the right underside (passenger side) of the engine, but could not tell from exactly where. The car runs great, and the temp gauge is normal. It does not seem to leak when the engine is running. I took it for a spin down the street and shut it off again but it did not leak.

Any clue why that would happen, or where I should be looking for the leak? It does not seem to be coming from the water pump, but then again I really can not tell with out a thorough crawl underneath.

Any help would be appreciated.
