Idea of a location where the coolant is leaking from?

Possible it is coming from the radiator? Possible two leaks?

I do apologize in advance since I am new on this but can someone help give me an idea of the location of this coolant leak is coming from? I drive a 2001 w203.

you should check behind the engine block, there is a coolant pipe that is known for cracking. It might look clean but wipe your hand around that area feel for any slime or coolant.

On top of the exhaust manifold is a know issue as well.

Thanks! I got it pressured tested and the leaking is coming from the radiator. It's cracked.
