need help localizing coolant leak
im losing coolant to the ground. it seems to leak more after i crank the engine (its flooded). i found the leak in the process of deflooding. (https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/coolant-flooding-dripping-ground-530540/) should be deflooded by now but im not sure since the coolant leak seems more crucial and i didn't want to start the car and have the pressurized system empting coolant everywhere. in my experience with the vehicle it has never leaked coolant (from anywhere except the overfill tank) nor has the engine "eaten" coolant.
my car is in pieces in my driveway... just checked my 2 turbo coolant hoses, seem fine, in the process i cracked my airbox top and a few wiring clips but i got the airpump off finally
i also checked the coolant hose behind the alternator, seems good too.
are there other lines to consider? the spot of coolant on the ground is under the rh back of the suspension crossmember. and the turbo control actuator seems to be in or around the path of the coolant leak.
thanks to the coolant system experts hope one of u knows what may be happening to my car.
