Have seen blocks to be rusted thru, hope thats not the case. If it was drained every winter instead of antifreeze it could be your problem. Try to clean it as best you can, and maybe presurize your system to make it leak faster and see it easier.

Obie,

The lower water pipe from the radiator bolts to the bottom front of the head. That would be the first place I would look. An easy fix if it's a bad gasket; a little more work if it's leaking through a rusted pipe. Bill

I tend to agree with Bill, if the gasket around the lower pipe going into the bottom of the head is leaking, it could be running back on the block, puddling and dripping there.

OR

You might keep a very close eye on the bolts which attach the block to the main case. I've seen water leakage there too. This would be indicative of internal block cracks.

If your tractor has a water pump, get some radiator sealer and go to it. I even used Pepper once, it lasted a few months.

Look real hard and inspect carefully for the source.
