My educated guess on the location of your leak would be the radiator fluid bypass tube that's located at the back of the engine.
Mine had a spot that had rusted through (VERY common), and leaked radiator fluid in a way that looked like it was coming from the head gasket.
Here is the part --
Here is where it had rusted through --
Here's the location of the bypass tube at the back of the engine --
Replacing it is -- fun. to make it easier remove the intake manifold.
Hopefully it's this, or better yet - just a heater hose has a leak.
