Default Macan S coolant leak

Hey all

All of a sudden there was a pool of coolant on my driveway few days back and coolant reservoir almost empty. Filled it back up and removed the lower engine shield to see where the leak is and it's regular coolant droplets coming from where the transmission and engine meet.
The whole top of the engine is dry as a bone and I've looked carefully everywhere.
Cannot pinpoint where the leak is coming from at the bottom?
see pics. Any advice appreciated

The most common coolant leak to experience on the 15-17 Macan S/GTS with the 3.0L Porsche engine is the coolant hose running under the intake manifold.

The hose require removal of the intake manifold and a few other components.

I just did this one on my 2016 Macan S with 149k miles. Mine failed while attempting to step on it to change lanes- talk about embarrassing! I ate some humble pie.

The coolant hose runs from the front of the engine to the back just past where the trans joins the block.


Mine broke at the front- but it literally fell apart in my hand while removing it.



Here is the new hose.
