I have a 1992 Cavalier and I was experiencing antifreeze leaks. I replaced the radiator and hoses in August and that stopped it until a week ago. Now antifreeze is leaking directly underneath the engine. What could it be this time? I'm thinking it's either the water pump or the block.

The best way is to get this pressure tested. It could be the water pump or one of the freeze plugs on the block. Of course it could be something more serious like a head gasket, but a pressure test should find that out for you real quick.
