Default Coolant Leak - HELP

************************************************** *************************************
I have pinkish-white splatter all over the passenger side of my engine. It's dried ... almost like a soap.
My coolant is pink so I assume this is what the leak is. It appears to be coming from the engine thermostat
housing.
My Tundra is a 2003, 52,000 miles, 6.5 years old with a TRD Supercharger new installed 15 months ago.
The S/C has run flawlessly. Never any overheating.
This is the 2nd time this has happened. About 3 months ago it did the same thing At that time I took the thermostat out and replaced the gasket. It was OK for a while. The 160 degree thermo. came with the S/C and is a year old.
The actual amount of coolant leaked is small. I do not need to be refilling the overflow tank frequently.
I welcome any and all ideas on what this may be.

Regards
George60
