I replace the upper radiator hose that's next to the water pump cuz I saw coolant squirting out like a super soaker water gun lol. But then I realize it still leaks by the clamp. I believe the radiator housing has a hair line Crack. Wow

Ps I inspect it before I installed new hose I didn't notice a Crack.
