Default 2011 A6 slow coolant leak driver's side, front bottom of engine

I've had this car for about 2 months now and haven't had any trouble with it so far. The previous owner who was only the second owner and said he had previously had a coolant line leak underneath the supercharger that Audi had repaired about 2 year's ago but hadn't had any other issues. Yesterday when I came out of the restaurant from lunch I noticed a small pool of liquid under the front of the car, I touched it and confirmed it was coolant. I couldn't see any obvious leaks from the topside of the engine but when I got back to my shop and got the belly pan off I was able to see there was a drip coming from above the oil cooler. I checked all of the cooling lines and connections that I could get too and those all appeared to be in good shape. I still can't confirm for certain where the leak is coming from. Any suggestions before I start taking stuff apart?
