IT might be the heater core. They put some with drain tube to keep them from leaking inside. Alot of times you can smell antifreeze inside or put a film on windshields. Is the leak on pas sagerside?
Good thought. Is the windshield steaming up?As far as freeze plugs,if you can get to it with
room to swing a hammer you can DIY.
Me, a hammer, my truck, and swinging, are four phrase that should not be put together. 

The winshield is not fogging up or anything like that

Then you aint blowing your diaphram like your suppose to   :goofball:  Fluid can only come out of so many places and these guys pretty much have you covered.  Is your temp running hot?

Crutch

Your hose should have a size printed on it. You can stop at a hardware or part store and pick up a barbed hose connection. (not sure what it's called where both ends of it are barbed, nipple maybe) and a couple hose clamps.

I have those at work, so I'm covered on that.  I just have to figure out how to unhook the hoses.  I know me, I'll look at it, can't figure it out, get my pruners out of my turkey vest and take care of it hoping I don't have to put them back.

I'm with  the majority on it being the heater core. They are a pain to replace too..

If it's the tube from the firewall it almost has to be A/C drainage or heater core.
