What do you mean? Anyway, this puddle was bigger than before the repair.

Default just thinking that could be leaking down from the repair the coolant was undoubtedly spilled
the question is has your coolant level dropped?

Default Clean it, and see if it happens again. Like C. O. Guy said, could be spillage from repair work.
It probably is not, but you should double check before you put your car back "under the knife".
