Last night when I was looking over my car I noticed this puddle on the driver’s side of the front rotor housing. At first it looked like oil, but after looking at if for a while I noticed a green hue and I think it might be antifreeze. I have noticed that my antifreeze has been going down very slow over time. Can anyone identify this leak? And how I can fix it? Thanks in advance to anyone you can help me. I hope this picture shows up, but you can see the wire loop for the spark plug wires in the bottom of the picture.

check the heater hose under the oil filter , they have been known to fail

I wish I could figure out how to post a picture, but the puddle is right on the mazda logo of the front rotor housing which is underneath the solenoid block and oil filler neck

The only cooling system part near there is the drain plug in the center plate.
It could be a water pump housing gasket leak on the front cover that's getting blown back there by the fan.

I just saw your post.
There is a 3/8" coolant circuit going into the back side of the pump housing, right over the top of the front plate.

Check out the cooling system section of the factory service manual.

A link to my copy is in my sig below.

I will check both the heater hose and coolant bypass hose tonight. I substance was almost sticky and looked like it had been leaking for a while cause it really didn't want to come off. Thanks for your suggestions
