Default Strange Antifreeze Leak Fixed - FYI

Just FYI, last week, I noticed large drops of antifreeze on the driveway inward of the right front wheel. Looking under the vehicle, I saw the back of the motor and bottom of the transmission was wet. Dang it, the intake manifold gaskets and radiator had already been replaced a few years ago. I added coolant to the reservoir and did a pressure test. Found a small leak at one of the heater hoses going into the firewall. The clamp was loose and spraying coolant all over, but it did not do it with the engine running enough for it to be noticeable. A simple pressure test found it. I'm getting too many gray hairs worring about simple stuff. Thought the gaskets had blown again. Whew.
