Of course you have a heater core in the rear on the left side. And you could have a leak in one of the lines going to the core. Get under the EX with a light and look carfully for a rusted line.

Mind did the same thing. The heater core went bad and on that model the box drains out under the car were condensation from the ac would let it out, instead of leaking inside the car on the passenger side on the carpet like older cars do.

Sorry im late with this,i couldnt seem to log on....The answer to your question is YES,there is a steel line under the intake with a short piece of rubber line attached to it and you can just about see it from the front of the intake with a light,it can leak and cause coolant to run off the back of the engine,The intake gasket set alone is about $40.00 and i dont know about the rubber line,i have seen it physically but havent changed one yet.Note the date of manufactor just incase,i bought an intake set for a 99 and the engine design was changed half way through...its not too hard to pull off the intake and re-install,you will need a 7mm socket for the coil packs,8mm socket for the fuel rail bolts and lower intake bolts and power steering bracket bolts and throttle bracket bolts,10mm socket for the intake bolts and alternator bolts and egr valve,and a large cresant wrench for the exhaust tube thats connected to the egr valve,flat screw driver for the air cleaner...and plenty of extensions with a swivel to be able to get to the back bolts of the intake....just incase you do it yourself this info could make it easier to gather tools.Its about a 3 1\2 to 4 hour job start to finish for the first time doing it,includes cleaning everything..Good luck
SOURCE: I need to take down the spare tire
along with the jack and the tire iron, there should be another metal rod that will have sort of a square, hex, or star shape on one end (this may also be part of the tire iron). with the trunk open, look along the top edge of the bumper and you should see a hole that you insert the rod into and then crank it to lower the tire out from under the car

1).First you will need a jack, and a socket wrench.
2).Look under the trunk section at the bottom to first find the tire.
3).lift up the truck with the jack then get the spare tire underneath.
4).Use the socket wrench to unscrew the bolt's (turn left to loosen turn right to tighten).
5).Take out the bad tire and replace it with the spare.
6).Place the bolts back in place.
7).Lower the car back down .
8).Through the bad tire and your tools back in the trunk.
9).Your all done and can now leave.
(Note - Do not touch the engine or try to operate the car while doing this).
