Default 1996 chevy 4x4 blazer problem

I have a 96 Chevy Blazer s-10 4x4,tonight when I got home and parked it it there was smoke coming from the hood and a spraying sound.I lifted the hood and noticed from the top of the motor it looked like antifreeze coming from this hose,but I couldnt tell from where.Any ideas? It has been shifting different like when I go around 60 it usually is just below 2 grand lately its been above that and not shifting down and i've had to put alot of antifreeze in it lately.Any help would be appreciated

you have a antifreeze leak. the best thing to do is let the truck cool down, fill the radiator with water and start the truck with the hood open, then look for the leak, once you can see the leak and where it is coming from, turn the truck off and replace what is leaking. probably a hose. if you don't know what it is then take a picture and upload it and we will tell you what it is.
