Nope, you could not see it from the top. On the day I went there was no
fluid under the car. They were able to see a few drops around the housing
hose after lifting it up and pressurizing the system with a pump.
The puddle began to form only very recently. Previously, I had topped the
coolant but I could never see it leaking.
I was glad it wasn't the pump or the rad.
