Okay, I inspected the areas cited by RMin and Dano, and see the leak area on the cement is actually nearly as large as two footballs and positioned from the front of the battery to the radiator. However, very puzzlingly I see no visible leak traces on anything discussed. There are two hoses spanning the area but not only do I not see a hose leak, all hoses were inspected by Dennis Sweeney's shop in Latrobe, PA only about 1,000 miles ago.
The latter proves nothing of course, and I'll be driving the car again to warm it fully so I can inspect the areas again. However, since this leak obviously occurs when the engine is running, I'm leaning against using it for tomorrow's 235 mile trip to DC. With it being a holiday weekend and my time so tight, DIY on anything but a minor problem is now out of the question.
