Well the 2 small puddles in the garage that make no sense were both like 2 or 3 DROPS, not "giant puddles". Couldn't figure where those came from.

The giant, gallon-sized puddle was when I found the drip coming from the water pump in (or out?) rubber hose that had a pin hole.

Likewise when it sprayed all over at the shop it was another small pin hole in a hose under the manifold.

Guess I should try the block tester, it better not be a HG after only 7 months and 4,000 miles though.

Also the twice since then through all this mystery the Subaru shop has ran pressure tests on the system - is that the same thing the block tester does? Sorry for my ignorance.
