If you are sure it's antifreeze, it might be the heater hoses leaking, that run along top of the engine on the six cylinder motor. And sometimes the radiator cap will dribble and blow back along the top. Good Luck.

If it's oil, the valve covers may be leaking a little on these older engines. And antifreeze will smell as it evaporates.

    Leaking antifreeze from beneath the radiator cap. The leak is not from the cap. The leak is coming from the end of the plastic cap under the cap.
