Car specs:

88 Turbo 5spd 7m-gte

i bought the car a few days ago everything seemed normal, i go to start up the car at school. The coolant light was on... okay i go and fill it up with coolant. I then park in my garage and i look under the hood and underneigh the intake manifold is a pretty decent coolant leak, (i can't see where i just can see it dripping) I'm sure it's coolant, and it's leaking quite a bit. I'd say 1-2 drips a second.. What is going on? The head gasket was replaced by toyota 45,000kilometers ago and burns no white out the exhaust even without a cat. I'm new to supra's, could this be a rad hose? I don't know where they run. Any help would be so apperciated!

UPDATE: After looking with a mirror as i read with some other posts, i'm 99% sure that it is the coolant hose that runs from the head to the ISC.

The only problem i'm having now is getting that stupid hose off, i can feel it with my fingers (the clamp) but i can't get a set of needle nose in there to save my life. Anybody have an idea?
