The sweet smell of Coolant.... AGAIN!!!!!
About 7 months ago I had to change out the auxilary coolant pump. When it went bad I noticed the coolant smell and the coolant was around the auxilary coolant pump under the manifold. This time I don't see any coolant in that spot. All the coolant seems to be sitting just under the blue electrical plug of the auxilary coolant pump in the rear of the engine just above the trans. Is there another connection near there that might be bad that I should check? Does it sound like the auxilary coolant pump again?
Also I noticed some oil or something on and around this hose.

its the hose on the passenger side front of the manifold. It is directly behind the DV and goes through the slot on the manifold. Is this something I should worry about?
Thanks again for all the help!!!

Re: The sweet smell of Coolant.... AGAIN!!!!!
I've got the same smell. I traced some residual coolant to under my torque converter. Right near the transmission name plate. Is this a typical spot that the aux water pump leaks onto? It is obviously running down from the engine, but I don't want to have to take apart more of the stuff in the engine bay than I have to.
