I have a drip coming from around the front crossmember (on both sides). Think that could be it. Im gonna pressure test my system, but i dont think any hoses would be destroyed.

Plus, where would one buy silicon or even SS braided radiator hoses for our cars?

your water pump has a weep hole that opens when the water pump fails, but you'd be able to see coolent coming from under the pulley if it was leaking from there. Have you looked in the engine bay with the motor on to see if it you can see where its leaking?

Can't help with the silicon or SS hoses.. sorry
