Lower right side coolant leak. I cannot see source from top of engine bay. Which hose (Part #) is down there?

Possibly the water pump or the Plastic coolant tower housing the thermostat, etc. S/C makes it more difficult to detect. Good luck.

Agree with ksteve, but these cars are crafty! I had the exact same puddle position 12 months ago - turned out to be a male male hose connector down behind the throttle body! BTW taking throttle body off is far easier than you think.

I don't know how I would have found it without a pressure tester.

Is it part of the valley hose?

I'm going to say no because it doesn't require removal of intake manifold.
