There has been a bit of coolant leaking onto the exhaust bracket as seen on the picture. It seems that it's also wet around the area in the picture as shown. Not too sure what connector this is which is below the intake manifold. There also seems to not be a leak from the heater hose from the firewall which is a common leaking place.

Good evening,

The first thing I would do is to pressure test the system and look for the leak.

You can rent a tester at a parts store for this procedure. Once you determine the leak, get back to me so I can help you more.
