Default advice please

hi all .
i got a bad coolant leak today .i could not find where it was coming from but it was dripping from the bottom left hand corner of the rad . so i took it off but it seems like the leak is coming from the rad in front of that ( which is the air con rad ) .is there any chance it could be leaking from there ? 2 hours later its still slightly dripping and wet ???? i assumed it was just gas in that system but it was coolant i was leaking or pour out .any advice appreciated thanks
