Have you checked underneath your heat shield? From where you described the coolant is leaking you seem to be having an issue a few of us had already. Being that you said you just changed your tank Im pretty sure that your return tube right about the radiator is the culprit. Check this link out for more details.

Cooling tube

I was reading through your thread, was it your coolant tube? Who did you have fix it? - I know the stealer wants big bucks for this to drop the motor and dismantle the engine

It IS the mid pipe yes, the job is getting done along with my valve seals being replaced, timing chain covers, head gaskets, etc all being changed so my Indy charged me abt $3500. Just waiting on the seals to come from Germany
