i dont understand cars anymore
first there was my oil leak. then my pump was leaking from a hose connection. i just fixed that, and two seconds later it was leaking from my pump sensor, so i fixed that. then two seconds after that it started to leak from another hose connection. all while never starting my car. it was never under pressure. why would they not all leak at once?

Well, basically perhaps you haven't offered blood to the Porsche G-d's recently?
Sorry for the bad luck.... I'd be happy to take the car off your hands of course...

When it rains, it pours . . . coolant in this case.
That stuff has a way of finding the weakest link all the way down the line. Now that it's solved, may the Almighty of Neckersulm bless you with many trouble free miles!

maybe you are just seeing residual effects of the first leak?
like, lets say you leak a ton of fuild (which you did), and that fluid cakes everything with a fine spattering of oil. this oil builds up and starts to drip from the different locations. which could appear to be a leak, but really is just leftover oil leakage from a different spot.
