Major Coolant Leak!

Just happened to look at the truck while it was running this evening and noticed a nice and steady stream of antifreeze coming down on the passenger side behind the inner fender liner. i have looked and cannot find anything. it eventually quits when i shut off the engine but only after several minutes. Are there any hoses or connections up under that liner towards the back right of the block? It is leaking down the tranny as well. I doubt if it will make it to the dealer because these are pretty good size puddles. I am going to go look some more and hopefully find something. Truck has only 15000 miles on it. ANY input would be helpful at this point. Thanks.

Chris
