    Found the antifreeze leaking problem, maybe

    I think I have found the antifreeze leaking problem. I don't think it is the radiator, I think it is this fitting. It is directly behind the alternator, here's a picture. Does anybody have a picture of what this fitting or hose connection is supposed to look like? thanks, Pat
