When mine was leaking a year ago, the coolant would pool in the valley pan and only occassionally did it get to a high enough level to run down the back of the engine. There were some stains/traces of the fluid left as evidence.

When it did this, it would usually get boiled off by the heat/exhaust and never made it to the ground. So, I never had a puddle under my SAV, but could smell the coolant after driving...

It's a slow leak, as has been mentioned previously.
