Coolant Leak

Noticed a coolant leak when I was replacing my front brakes this morning. It seems that the leak is coming from the driver's side. I did take my car in to the dealer this morning and was told that the bypass radiator hose was leaking, so I told them to replace it. Could it be that the bypass radiator hose is leaking again? Is it leaking from somewhere else? Thanks.

That's what the dealer told me they replaced. what is a bypass hose radiator? I'm really hoping it's not the water pump. The car has not been overheating though.

Update: Got my car back from the dealership on Wed evening. The water pump was the culprit. The mechanic did the pressure test and it turns out the water pump was leaking through the vent water pump vent and dripping through the side of the engine. I hope this last another 100k.
