Help needed, coolant leak

Hello,
I have a heavily modified 2008 F250SD King Ranch.
I noticed the coolant reservoirs were low but not empty.
I filled both the fuel cooler, and the main reservoir. After driving it about 6 miles I noticed it started dripping below the driver's side front of the motor. It was dripping a bout a drop per second. It relieved itself back down to the same level it was before. I'm presuming it's probably the reservoir, but I'd like some pointers as to what else it could be.
I already replaced the upper coolant hose with the updated one. None of the radiators or coolers seem to be the problem.
The drips land on the stabilizer bar as they fall. But the truck never runs out of coolant.

Thanks in advance.
