Welcome to 2CarPros.
In this case, what you need to do is pressurize the system. Clean as much coolant off the engine as you can. Then, pressurize the system. Make sure it is full of coolant before you pressurize it so you will be able to find the leak.
I realize most people don't own a pressure tester. However, most parts stores will lend/rent one to you.
Here is a link that shows how it is done:

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe
