Default 92 Accord LX radiator leak...

Hello everyone, I have a 92 Accord LX that has been leaking coolant for a while now. It's not a fast leak, but enough to where I have to replace coolant every few weeks. I found a spot where coolant was dripping on the bottom left of the radiator, but the hoses seem fine. It looks like there is some kind of gasket there, and it seems like the drip could be coming from there as I can see coolant gathering there, but I'm not sure. Am I in the right direction, or does this sound like an actual radiator leak. Any ideas? Thanks so much!

I had what sounds to be the same problem. My wife's 97 Cl coolant was disappearing not fast but every 3-4 weeks i had to fill the recovery tank. It was leaking coolant at the connection for the tranny cooler line and the Radiator. Replaced Radiator have not noticed any coolant missing in 10 days now. Took the Radiator apart and the gasket inside sealing the tranny cooler line to the Radiator was cracked. Don't know where u buy parts from but here a discount code for $40 off $100 or more @ Advance Auto parts MV123. The Radiator & a gallon of coolant came to just over $100. Buy online and pickup @ the store use code @ checkout.
