Freeze plugs can go for a number of reasons... Time to put some dye in the coolant and figure exactly where it's leaking.

I suggest this^ Its your best bet.

And also how are you sure its leaking from there? Are you sure that's not where its running to? I know that coolant isn't going to manifest like oil but never the less it will run toward the back of your car due to driving it.
