coolant blow up

i have a puddle of antifreeze/coolant that appears to be coming from in front of the turbo (when looking down on the engine)

Does anyone know why coolant would have sprayed everywhere, is there a hose or something back there going from the turbo to the radiator?????

I put a tbe on a few months ago...I don't think this should have anything to do with it, but I guess it could?????

it is an 02?

thanks

UPDATE: I pull in my driveway last night and white smoke starts to pour out of my hood scoop.
I opened the hood and smell the sweet smell of coolant, and it is everywhere. It mostly seems to be concentrated in front of the intercooler and down behind the metal coolant cap (right in front of the turbo). Does anyone have insight into what could have sprayed fluid everywhere? Please tell me there is a hose that most likely busted and it will cost 1.25.

Thanks for your help
