If this instantly started after your work I suspect a gasket got folded or not cleaned up well. You could/should pressure check the system and while under pressure look for the seepage - may take dental type mirrors to look under things,

If a shop performed this work, you should take it back in to be checked.

If you did this work & it wasn't leaking before you should start with double checking your work. If it still has the same leak then you have to find out where the leak is coming from and fix it.....

Please don't make multiple posts for the same problem, I deleted your other one.....

WOW ! you guys are on the same page for sure! 1 min apart on replys! Good! Pressure test cooling system is the first thing to do by all means. Post results please.
