Default Coolant leak near transmission cooler lines

Not real knowledgeable under the hood.

I am having a coolant leak that appears to be spraying out of or around the top transmission coolant coupling. I am adding antifreeze to the reservoir after making a trip to and from work. When I open the hood (engine off), there is evidence of the leak on the driver side as coolant has ran down the side of the radiator and some has sprayed onto the side of the battery and the surrounding compartment. If I allow the engine to run with the hood open, I will notice see a slight spray of coolant around the top coupling when the thermostat opens and it circulates. My question; is the transmission cooler part of the radiator, or is it located just in front of the radiator with the A/C condenser?

Thanks.

No it is not. The A/C condenser and transmission cooler share the same cooler. The radiator is by it shelf.
