Where else can coolant leak from?
I've replaced my cracked radiator and my thermostat. None of the hoses are cracked or leaking and yet, about halfway back, dripping from near my oil pan, I've got coolant coming out. The leak started small and now it's so bad I'm putting in a quart a day.
Pretty sure it's not the main seal, it's pure green that's coming out... What else is there that can leak?

On top of the engine underneath the intake on the driver side there are coolant hoses that connect to metal coolant lines. I had one spring a leak there at the connection and it dripped down as you mentioned. There is also coolant running through the throttle body. There are also coolant hoses going into the firewall that feed the heater core. Actually there are quite a few coolant hoses all over the place.

I am inclined to agree with immortal_suby. I would check all the coolant lines. The throttle body is a good place to start. Let the car warm up and just follow the lines. you should find it.
