Anyway, having just changed out that coolant tank myself a few months back, there's only 3 real possible ways for coolant to get to that overflow tube. 1) Coolant cap 2) relief/burp valve or 3) (VERY unlikely) a crack in the top of the black plastic.
I think the burp valve will fix it for you! Pullin' for ya over here!

Fan, dude! You've seen inside the belly of the beast! Can you please explain to me how the overflow valve communicates with the main tank/coolant system? I hate not understanding stuff, and I can't find any diagrams or descriptions of what that tube actually does.
