You say rear of the engine, is it anywhere near the transmission end? The PCV hose, the heater hoses, the main metal tube that runs under the exhaust manifold could all be culprits. Start removing parts until you spot it.
I'll bet the leak is coming from the thermostat housing, it's really hard to spot as it's under the power steering pump. Mine started to leak out of the blue too, replaced the whole thing, thermostat and housing as it's sold as one piece.
I second the thermostat housing. Had one there myself. Also check the actual coolant reservoir where it's connected to the hose. Took damn near everything apart before I realized the reservoir had a small crack.
