More than likely your freeze plug is going to be the culprit and I would suggest you look there first. On some vehicles, the freeze plug is covered by the transmission housing or just plain difficult to get to and inspect for the average person. On older models, the freeze plug can rust out and create a leak. In this case take it to your trusted mechanic for repair.
