Pressure check time. I've seen leaks from every possible location. Easiest way is to fab a piece of aluminum tubing sized to clip the two radiator hoses together. Have it drilled/tapped for 1/8 NPT and attach a common pump style radiator pressure tester. Valve covers off and 20 pounds, sharp ears and eyeballs - along with soapy water will usually find it somewhere. If the leak is too big to hold pressure for long you can cobble up the leakdown tester to deliver a constant moderate pressure so you can continue hunting.
