Hello,

The leak can be coming from anywhere on the radiator to include the lower hose at the connection. If it the original radiator I would say it is time to change it.

The top hose and the radiator cap being cool or colcan indicate a stuck closed thermostat. Looking at the temp gauge before your problem were did the needle run and now were does it run. Also what is the outside temp were you live. this could be why it does not overheat.
