I might have found the mistery coolant leak E300 turbo diesel

The top hose was sliced and little coolant was evaporating from there, I was lucky to find it as there was nothing to see from above, I did touch the pipe before but didn't feel anything..There was never any water or coolant near etc...
I don't know how it happen but the pulley from the steering power nicked the pipe.
Could be handy for others too who have a mistery leak...
