Default Coolant leaking.

I did a search, but didnt find a thread that quite described where I got coolant leaking from.

I seem to have coolant leaking around the water pump somewhere, it dosent leak alot, seems to be worse when I get on the gas a little. I cant tell where the coolant is comming from as it dosent always leak, all I can see is a coolant puddle on top of the block just behind the water pump. Im leaning towards a cracked intake manifold. Untill I can find the leak unless someone has any ideas I guess ill drive it untill the leak gets worse! lol.

most likely it is a cracked intake manifold, especially if you have the plastic crossover.
