Default Coolant leak under radiator

Hey all, so I have a Coolant leak on my 2007 Dodge caravan.. It is located somewhere below my radiator. The leak is happening just above the cross brace below the radiator. I get leaks on both sides of the vehicle because I think it's leaking on top of the cross brace and drips off of it. I have looked and looked and cleaned the undercarriage to find the source to no avail, because it will go for days without a single drop, then bam, two big puddles.

So far I have changed the thermostat, water pump, hoses, and I still cannot find the source. Other things Ive checked is the drain on the radiator, hose clamps, the Y cnnectors, but I am not seeing a source.

Here's the weird thing (or maybe it's not weird) it leaks really bad when the car has just been sitting and is cold for a while..it can even sit for days. Then without even driving it, it just leaks like crazy. If I drive the car and its hot, it doesn't seem to leak as bad.

Do you think it's my radiator? Or any other ideas?? Anyone else come across this? Any help is appreciated in advance. Thank you.
