I topped up the reserve and slowly drove it 15km to a local mechanic that is apparently reputable. Let's see. No coolant hitting the ground, just being sprayed around the engine bay in small amounts. There was no fresh spray visible after driving the 15km. Hopefully it's just a worn seal or pipe. Though if it is the mechanic won't profit off that too much, so one never knows what they're going to do or declare.
