New engine, leaking coolant from spot with no coolant
Hey guys. 1998 Blazer 4 door 4x4. Just put a new engine in it from jasper. it's leaking coolant somewhere around the driver side exhaust. drips down onto the front axle differential and then the floor. don't think it's coming out of the temperature sensor, it's dry all around there. not a hemorrhaging leak, more of a fast drip.
Anybody know where it can be coming from? is there a loose tube in there I can't see? or does anybody have any general tip/tricks/magic formulas for fixing (or finding!) coolant leaks?
Thanks!

Also look at the exposed headstuds while the engine is running. They might be seeping, since this is a rebuilt engine. If so,
that means you'll have to pull the valve covers and check for pooling coolant.
