Default 2002 s type - coolant

Hi, Im losing coolant water somewhere, its a clean engine and I don't have a lot of knowledge but if im right its going one of two places. Headgasket gone (but I cant see any cream at all in the oil cap or water cap . Or split hose ( is there any particular re-nouned hot spots where these often go?) ?

Need to pressure test cooling system when engine is cold. No other way.
It could from many different places. Whatever you do at this late date ALL the hoses need changed.

Forget the head gaskets that is very rare and I am sure several have been changed that did not need it but they were throwing parts at the car hoping for a fix.

Did you run the engine hot with no coolant?
