it could also be a bad water pump, have you inspected it? how much of your coolant is leaking and when does it leak (when engine is hot)?

Have you replaced any coolant hoses yet? You might want to just take the car to a mechanic.

I did talk to a mechanic and his thoughts were the coolant hose that goes from the throttle body to the top of the rear engine housing. The problem now is that I cannot tell where the end is that connect to the rear engine housing. Any ideas on how to get to this hose to check the end at the engine?

Fixed

After many hours, the problem ended up being this. One of the torque converter bolts came out and was flying around with the torque converter. The bolt broke part of the lip by the upper freeze plug on the rear housing. That is what was causing the leak.
