I'd guess the water pump itself (leaking from the shaft, just above the
PS pump), the water pump-block gasket (an o-ring), the t'stat housing
(o-ring) or one of the hoses to the stat or WP.

That of course describes everything that touches coolant on that side of
the engine, so it may be as much help as saying "food" when someone asks
what you'd like to eat.

HTH anyway,
