Let engine run to operating temp, spray a little water to connections and search for bubble?

Spraying liquid on a fitting to find a liquid leak. There is no bubbles.

It only works if you are using a dye to hi-light the leak.

From looking at the picture. The hose on the right looks like it's leaking at the connection. What you can do. Move the spring clamp back off the hose. Twist the hose around. Then put the spring clamp back on. If that don't work. Replace the clamp.

Those spring clamps lose tension over time and temperature.
