Well I had a leak from where my water pump was mounted to the block but thats because it was rooted lol. Perhaps double check the hose clamps? Particularly those attached to the oil cooler.

Where was your leak appearing? I had it this morning steaming near the intercooler? Thinking this could be a similar issue?

Yep so mine was near the oil cooler and couldn't really see where it was coming from because of everything in the way. Pray to all thats holy it's not broken because it can do some serious damage and isn't cheap to replace. Worth mentioning mine was leaking with the engine off also, it literally couldn't hold 1L of coolant. I'd take off the timing belt cover to make sure things all look healthy

Well that doesn't fill me with confidence haha. Mines the same. I pour it in, it comes out haha. It keeps everything from the radiator but just not the block area. Will replace the thermo on Sunday and have a good luck around. Hopefully just a **** clamp... I'm praying
