Coolant leak

I was wondering where common coolant leaks occur on a FC? I started up the car yesterday after not doing so for over a month, let it idle, everything seemed fine, turned it off, check this morning, side note I already have a oil pan gasket leak that needs to be fixed, but today there was some coolant mixed in with the oil, looked under the car, and little small drips of coolant were dripping down near the oil pan, since I can't jack up the car I can't look under the car to see where is dripping from. So I'm curious where common leaks occur in an FC, any help would be great.

It could be from anywhere.

The most common location I can think of is the driver side heater hose. After that, you need to check the rad hoses, water pump weep hole, coolant hoses under the intake manifold.
