Hi, can you had a photo where more of the engine is seen to get a perspective, and also draw an arrow to where it leaks exactly?

Are sure its a sl1?Because the intake looks plastic and the sl1's never used a plastic intake. The sl2 Saturn's had plastic intakes from 2000-2002 the last year the S model saturns were made. The plastic nipples break/crack where the small hose goes from the intake manifold to the coolant bottle.

So do you have a sl2 with a plastic intake?Is it that nipple leaking?If so that nipple is part of the intake manifold. Also if the intake manifold is plastic the intake gaskets are known for leaking coolant. They redesigned the intake gasket. But I dont know if the intake is plastic because you havent told me yet?
