coolant leak on pass. of radiator housing 850 1994

Last week the low coolant light came on in my '94 850 so i checked the reservoir and topped it off with 50/50 till it was above the min. line. Wasn't seeing any coolant on the garage floor at the time but now there is a rather obvious puddle directly below the pass. side of the radiator. The coolant appears to be coming out of the plastic cover that is part of the fan because there is coolant all over the little plastic ridges going down the side. Is the radiator shot or is there a connection of some kind under the plastic shroud? BTW the hose above this area is dry and not leaking. Thanks
