coolant leak, seems to be heater core supply line

Put some water in it and see where it's leaking from.

I blew a heater core hose and lost a TON of coolant in just 1/2 a mile.

Thanks J.
The green puddle underneath is at the far end of the engine compartment.

Where? Near the belts? At the back near the windshield?

Seeing underneath from the driver's door, it lines with the side-view mirrors, so yes to windshield.

Either the coolant hoses or the lower radiator hose connects to the engine over in that area as well.

The hoses Inlet 22, Outlet 23, and O-ring 7a were replaced. For some reason heater is working better.

Thanks ALL for help.
