    IS IT LIKELY OR POSSIBLE THAT A RUSTED COOLANT METAL LINE, THE HEATER RETURN LINE CONNECTED TO THE WATER PUMP MAY LEAK COOLANT?

    Could be, especially if it’s located in the front or under the vehicle. The easiest way to determine is definitely to put pressure on the coolant system with a tool. This is very effective to find coolant leaks.

    the first thing we need to do is determine if you have coolant or water underneath of the vehicle.  Coolant is sweet smelling and is typically orange, green, or pink. It might not seem possible to determine the color of the liquid in question, but a paper towel allowed to soak up enough coolant definitely will begin to show pigment.  Water is tasteless and odorless.
