Default Coolant Inspection

Hey all, taking my LR4 in soon for a coolant leak diagnosis. No overtheating but i can smell it. If it turns out to be something more major like water pump or crossover pipe, is there anything else I should get done while the intake manifold is off? Hoping it's just a hose but I can't see a visible leak. Thanks.

update, found very small coolant droplets on the ground, driver side, sort of inline with the firewall.

I have test drove 4 LR4's this week and i smelled coolant on every one of them. No visible drips on any of them either. As a former Disco 1 and 2 owner i am paranoid about head gasket issues and have not bought one yet.

Were any of them overheating?
