Nanniepoo is on a distinguished road
I'll check the hoses first, and maybe change water pump, t-stat, and expansion tank as worst case it'll be preventative maintenance.

I hope it's not the valley pan/coolant pipe, not because I'm particularly scared of the work, but I'm not convinced if the valve stem seals are bad and I know that will be a perfect time to address them. We lose a quart of oil in about 4k miles, but I haven't had a chance to poke around to see if valve cover gaskets or anything else is leaking, and I do have new PCV valves ready to be swapped in.
