Coolant Leak on Engine

I noticed the other day that i have coolant pooling on top of the motor from the end cap to the rear rotor housing. When i removed the coolant it didn't look like it was seeping in but after letting it sit, i noticed that it seems to be leaking from the end cap. Is this common in 12A's? Has anyone had this problem before? What would be the easiest way to fix it? any help would be appreciated.

Are you sure that the fluid is not leaking from between the motor and the intake? That is very common. There are two O-rings in there than can start leaking.
