Help tracking a coolant line?!?!?!?! PLS?!?!?!?

Today ive noticed that there is a lil smoke like water burning with heat coming out around where efini pipe goes, under there or near that area. Ive talked to a couple of people and everyone seem to answer realy fast "its little coolant line that feed the the turbos. is about 6 inches or so and is hidden under there."
Ive taken the efini pipe out, the intake piping and just about most of the piping that runs around that area and i can seem to locate it. .....Where in the world is it???????
I dont want to take more things apart so if anyone can tell me or help me locate it minimizing the amount of things i remove to avoid hazzle i would appreciate it,

PICTURES WOULD HELP

Just about everyone that ive asked seemed to know which line i was talking about because they said is a common line that cracks on FDs after years of usage, yet nobody was able to help me trace it, So if anyone has pictures or is good with words, i would appreciate the hep to try to track down that line.

Thanks

pull the air pump. It's the only way to see the upper coolant line.

Yep, once the air pump is off everything becomes much easier to see & work on.
