My 97 3.8 liter GP has developed a serious collant leak from a rather odd location. I added coolant directly to the radiator as it was quite low. After starting the engine, a stream about the size of a pencil was observed above the water pump. The brownish area in the following pictures link is where the stream is seen:

This is a close up of the area. The red arrow points to where the stream is coming from(the stream is actually coming from under the black bracket).

There is an odd plastic tube with a sharp 90 degree bend just below the leak. It apears to go from behind the sepentine tensionor bracket to the engine block or perhaps intake manifold.
Hopefully this is just some overflow point, but I couldn't get that lucky.
Any help would be be great.
