Guys. The tank is compromised. I get it. I will replace it.

BUT. Do the drips in front of the rear wheels (a long way from the tank) point to a bad tank? Or is there a hose closer to the drip location that could be leaking?

I'd feel pretty stupid if I replaced the tank only for the car to still be leaking from somewhere else. That's what I'm trying to determine.
If you are that concerned, add some UV dye to the cooling system, after circulating it for a while, pressurize the system with something like the Stant system test tool, put the car up in the air and look for where it is coming from with a UV light.
