Puddle in the driveway Only after it sits all night

Ive got a 1987 pontiac trans am with the 305 tpi. Heres whats happening when it sits overnight it will leave a little puddle of antifreeze. I just replaced a failed intake gasket which was a major PITA and it dosent look wet around the intake so im hopeing its not that.

Ive took it on long trips and have looked over everything that i could to see what may be leaking and i cant find anything that is wet. But when i let it sit overnight it leaves a small puddle

At first i thought it was my dog pissin underneath it but ive ruled that out.

Anyone else ever have a problem like this maybe the water pump???

Welcome to TGO. It could easily be the water pump. Or perhaps the radiator.
