Several questions are raised. Do you add coolant regularly to the radiator? Do you work the tractor substantially, or does it get mild infrequent operation that doesn't get it warmed up? After sitting for 3-4 days if you loosened the oil drain plug, would a bit of coolant come out? There are several internal places for leaks. from a cracked head, to internal block core plugs (Often incorrectly called freeze plugs. Sleeves can be responsible for leaks with pinholes and cracks. If the answer to are you adding coolant is yes, I would pull the valve cover and oil pan and put a radiator pressure checker on the radiator (no more than the pressure listed on the cap) and look for leaks into the internals. it might take a day or two to show up.
