Severe coolant leak.

I have an 04 ford explorer, with severe coolant leakage. I am far from an expert but it seems like it's coming from the center engine block, but I can't get much access in to tell. What's going on?

04 , is it a 4.0 ? They have a lot of issues with the water outlet on top of the engine . They leak in the valley under the plenum . If that is what you are calling center block . They made the things out of plastic . They come unglued ! Seen it many times , mine included . Just a thought !
