head gaskets?

i have a little colant under my truck the last 2 days,no aparant leaks but it looks like it is dripping from somewhere near the drivers side rear of motor,i had the bottle out last week to replace the icp sensor i was wondering if maybe i missed something when putting it back together.no smoke or anything like that.

thanks

Since you just had it out I doubt its headgaskets. I would think its probably just one of the hoses not sealing completely and weeping a little. First thing I'd check is make sure all the hoses are pushed on fully and the clamps are in good shape and positioned well.
