leaking coolant S5

from my knowledge
everything started after the wet season in socal.
the month of rain
since then my FC has been acting up on me.

started with the start ups.
the warm up procedures will be half assed

and then i noticed a good amount of coolant, especially when i crank it up.

so i immidiatly thought it was the coolant and exchanged it to koyo and efan combo.

however, it is still leaking and i recently check the hoses and they are tight.

the start ups are strong now but its still leaking




and the bottom half of the engine is always wet.
damped, swampy
friends tell me its an oil leak, but i think its something else that i dont know about.




and recently my cars been starting to idle really low as it gets hot.

need your help
thank you.



btw my fc is 1990 s5
