I don't know what it costs, but if it IS the heater hose or valve, be careful. If it finishes breaking off altogether, it'll only take a minute to pump all your coolant out on the ground. Then you'll really be in trouble.

If it's seeping out from a loose hose clamp, maybe you'll be OK. If something's actually cracked, it's gonna only get worse. If you're not lucky, it'll get a lot worse real quickly.

Usually, it's on a heater hose, right outside of the firewall. Maybe mid-height, closer to the passenger side. It's not very big, just a blocky thing in the hose with a cable attached to a lever that opens & closes the valve.
