So i finally found the region where im leaking coolant, but it doesnt make sense because there arent any hoses around there. after driving 5 miles down the free way at 70 i stopped and saw that there was alot of water being sprayed under the battery around onto the driverside wheel well. the only thing that i see involved with the cooling system around there is the radiator reservoir.. i dont see any cracks though and it holds water. does any pressure go into it? what could be leaking in that area? 1996 2.2 L

Is your reservoir full? If it is then it might just be overflowing and it must've poured out of the overflow hole at the top of the reservoir neck. If not that go ahead and check all the hoses and the radiator just in case.
I take that back. Check all your hoses. Start from the upper radiator hose, inlet/outlet heater hoses, bypass hose, and TB hose.

Check the hoses I listed. More than likely its your upper radiator hose or radiator.

You might have an internal leak. You mentioned that the water is being sprayed on the side and under the battery. If you haven't noticed, the coolant reservoir has a hole on the neck, I assume that the water was going out there. The head gasket may be going out or a hole on the block that the exhaust gases is pushed into the water jackets then to the cooling system then to the radiator then the extra water/pressure goes into the reservoir and overflows.

if its leaking by the coolant res! It means that there is air in your coolant system and its gushing out of the res tank! So bleed your coolant system if it happens again your head or head gasket is sucking air pockets into the coolant system!
