I recently replaced the radiator. now there is a coolant leak but when i looked under it to see where the leak is coming from it looks as if coolant is seaping out from the oil pan what could this be?

check the water pump. they have a weep hole at the bottom of the pump. if it's leaking, then it will drip down and off the oil pan. get underneath the vehicle and shine a light on the water pump to see if it's leaking. also recheck the previous work you did. make sure all the hoses are tight.
