Hello, Are you talking about the engine cooling fan? I'm not sure if your talking about the water pump side, or radiator side?

I'm thinking it has to be the water pump side I'm sure its not coming from the radiator. It's like the leak is coming from the space between the engine and the belt rotors

Can you tell if it might be a hose or the water pump itself?

From looking at the diagram I think it has to be coming from the D section either that water pump or the pulley I don't think its the bypass hose the water seems to be leaking from a lower part of tat area. Is that something I would have to take to a mechanic or the dealer or is something simple I can change in my driveway.
