You will have to pinpoint where its coming from. Jack it up, clean it off and inspect. Check the timing belt cover at the bottom. If its coming from there you may have a bad water pump.

The fact that you just changed the fluid. Did you take out the plug behind the block (by the oil pressure sender) when you drained the fluid? Maybe the plug isn't in correctly? Check the heater core hoses on the back of the block too.

Sounds to me, it's most likely your water pump. Had the same prob last year. Was dripping from the oil pan, under the timing belt. Had the water pump replaced. Prob fixed! But now my radiator is going bad!
