Is it really leaking or just some left over from that "overheaving" ?? Did any spill while filling it back up? If still difficult try with engine fully cool/cold drying off any dampness of anti-freeze, or CAREFULLY rinse areas with clean water, let dry and look for source again. Leaks can fool you. Most will be the highest up and furthest forward as the source if it's all over things. If slow - a dental type mirror can see under items like water pump and tougher areas. Anywhere coolant is could leak and even the recovery tank can have a leak.
