I'm almost positive this is where the leak is coming from. Nothing visible leaking anywhere but when I removed the top SOHC cover you can see the pooling of coolant behind the T-Stat. I think when I'm driving its finding a path out but never hits the ground or gets burned off. I do smell something sweet and fluid color is gold and does have a slight oily feel. I'm pretty sure its not engine oil since its not blackish gold. It could possibly be brake not uncertain. Where the fluid runs dries white too.



However, I an having another fluid leak somewhere alone the a brake line because this fluid is not drying up. Color is also gold.



Any help to trace down the leaks?
