Hey, need some help.

BMW G20.

Hit a deep pothole, heard a strong impact from the front. Right after that there was smoke coming from the front left wheel area.

I managed to drive home, but when I opened the hood I saw coolant sprayed around the engine bay.

Right now:

no clear visible leak point

on a cold engine nothing is dripping

looks like it only leaks under pressure

Before this, the car had zero cooling issues.

Main question:

What are the most common places coolant can leak from after an impact like this on a G20?

Trying to narrow down where to look before tearing things apart.

Thanks.
