Sounds more probable than Rich's theory.....might putting paper towel
around the area that might indicate if there is a leak. And it only
happens during the winter so the cold is obviously causing the
leakage....just exactly where.

Maybe the pump shaft seal leaks a bit when it is super cold?

Subject: Stus-List Antifreeze Mystery
After the engine is winterized in the Fall, I place a plastic pan
under it.....not sure why but I do. Every Spring, there is
approximately a half a cup or 250 ml of antifreeze in the pan.
I have looked everywhere for the source of this antifreeze but I
can't find out where it is coming from. The boat was launched 3
weeks ago, the engine has about 3 hours on it since then, the pan is
still under the engine but there is no antifreeze in it. And the
antifreeze does not appear during the sailing season.
I notice every Spring the level of the antifreeze in the 'overflow
container' is down a bit and I refill to the 'FULL LEVEL' but that
container is not leaking. It's a mystery!
Anybody experience this and/or have any ideas where this antifreeze
could be originating from?
