The only thing that looks suspicious is the small hose that goes from the engine to the overflow bottle is turning kinda crusty and white. Maybe the rubber is too porous? Don't ever see any leaks though.
that hose on mine is the same way so thats not it.do a visual check on your radiator cap making sure it doesnt need replacing.cause if it does,it will block the coolant overflow hose and excess pressure will cause the vapors to escape through the cap.
