Heater Leak?
My 72 350 non AirCond Coupe has just pi**ed coolant all over the garage floor. The source is the right hand firewall under the heater hoses. I don't think they are leaking.
How much trouble am I in? Is this going to be a bi*** to fix?

Sounds like a heater core leak at the point where the tube connects to the core. Have you checked to be sure?
Replacing a heater core is pretty straight forward. PITA, but better than having coolant puddled in the passenger's footwell.
For a quick fix, remove the hoses from the core and run them together. Cabin will be cooler.
