96 CC 7.3 coolant leak and no heat

Hey everyone,

I have noticed over the last week or so it smelled funny outside when I exited the truck but just blew it off. Now on the way into work I didn't have much heat at all coming from the vents, and my wife called and noticed a antifreeze puddle in the garage right under where the motor would sit at night. Any ideas?

Ideas? Only the obvious one: look around under the engine and find the leak...
The heater core is in the cab, so that's not it.
I don't know if there's a common issue with the Powerstrokes. If so, you'd find it by searching the Powerstroke forum for "coolant leak"...
