hey guys my 2005 c55 just developed a coolant leak in a strange spot.. ive never witnessed this before. it completely emptied out all of the coolant from what appears to be a hose under the brake master cylinder location? Has anyone else ever experienced this? When it happened there was gurgling in this area and visible coolant. Tried to take a few pictures of the location.

That is a brake fluid line in the first photo coming from the brake cylinder and reservoir. The other rubber hose at the back, the thick black one there is the water duct from the wiper gutter to allow water to flow out under the car. As far as I know I don't think there is another water hose there. The other clear hose is your wind screen washer fluid hose.

Thanks it seems like the leak is coming from one of the metal pipes at the very bottom underneath the master cylinder. There are two small metal pipes that start to go from the drivers side of the engine into that area and then into the firewall. Heater core pipes?

The heater core pipes is the only coolant flow that is going to be near the fire wall. Are you able to see where the drips start. It could be that they are traveling along other lines in the bay and making it appear they are coming from the location you are seeing.
