coolant leak after 5 speed swap

[nep]

just finished up my 5 speed swap and decided to take it around the block. i didnt get half way down my driveway when i noticed antifreeze leaking down into the passenger footwell. i took a picture to show where the liquid was coming from:

the only thing i can think of is a line i removed to allow better access to the bellhousing. the line is pictured below

of course i put it back, but it was a pain in the ass to get off and i recall wrestling with it quite a bit. could this be the source of my problem?

Yes, that is your heater fill hose, you may have cracked your heater core while removing the hose.

dude...jack up the front of the car....fill her up with water/or coolant and run the car and lie underneath a wait for a leak. coolant could be leaking from anywhere...ive had the lines under the intake manifold bust on me...also had a turbo line break...this is what i did. it may take a while to determine where its coming from.

the automatic radiators have a coolant line on the bottom left corner i believe
that runs to your auto tranny try covering it up..
