Default antifreeze

So i popped the hood to add some oil in yesterday and look what i found, antifreeze was splattered all over the place and dried out. All over the engine and the intake, defn a huge spot around the top of the radiator cap, so i'm thinking it's probably a hose or something?

Could it be the water pump?

if it was all over the radiator cap it prolly came out of the cap... you probly need a new cap that could be the problem... also try starting it up and letting it warm up and just watch your hoses and cap you should be able to determine where its coming from.

k, i was just looking at it, let the car start and warm up to see where it's leaking again, looks like it's pouring over from the top of the radiator.

and not just from the cap but from the whole radiator top :/
