That is very highly unlikely VERY VERY VERY UNLIKELY.

If by some means it came out of there the vehicle wouldnt be running to get hot

I was told by a friend of mine that the leak was coming from the cap. That didn't seem right. I know that I seen it coming under the car, not sure where.

What do you think it can be.

1. A hose.
2. The radiator.
3. A thermostat problem.

Can come from many things.

Bad radiator, bad freeze plugs, cracked block, warped/crackedhead, bad headgasket, bad radiator hose. Many things can you get a picture?
