Yes you do have a leak. Put your Z up on jack stands and take off the belly pan. Get a flashlight and look around for dried up green or blue coolant. Use a cooling system pressure tester if you got one. This will help force coolant out of any leak points so you can see coolant dripping. I know a common leak point on our cars is the plastic restrictor between the two right side heater hoses. Mine started to crack. Or, check the weep hole for the water pump. You'll see witness marks on the left hand side of the block.
