Radiator coolant leak

Radiator coolant leak.

I just gassed the car up, the gas station was not level, so the car essentially was leaning to the right just a little.

When I went back to the car, I noticed coolant leaking from the right front corner of the car, nothing too bad, enough to make a small puddle.

Radiator is Fluidine I believe, can they be repaired?

I drove home, and now there seems to be nothing leaking any more. not sure what to think.

I don't know how to check the water levels yet either, another thing I'll have to research here.

The leak is small enough that once I figure out how to keep things topped off, I can still drive the car, although of course I'm not planning any long trips.

Is there an overflow tube like on normal cars that may have caused this leak??

The car was not fully warmed up yet, I had just slowloy driven it to the gas station in preparation of a 40 mile drive, when I saw the coolant leaking out of the right front corner.

Now, the car WAS leaning to the right because the gas station ground wasn't level, so the leak may have come from anywhere and traveled to the right side due to the car leaning to the right.

It is baffling to me though that now after driving home, I'm not finding any coolant leaking any more.

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.
