there is a drain for the heater core on the pass side an well they sell a presure tool for the cooling system an then it will leak good enough for u to find it.

+1 I say it will be the heater core or hoses going to it. I would do a pressure test like mentioned above. Should leak almost immediately but if not make sure you don't put more pressure than what your radiator cap says.
