Message the t-belt cover. Driver side can be removed w/out much issue, its the passenger side that needs the radiator and other thing removed to get it out (see T-belt FAQ for all the steps).

Good news, before removing the passenger side cover - you'll have to remove two coolant pipes in front of it. Doing that also causes removal of the short coolant hoses hidden behind those pipes - good way to see if that's the issue (a leaking hose). PS - Really doubting the issue is behind the t-belt cover, more likely those short hoses if the leak is down there. If you get this far -- would be a good time to replace the coolant t-stat as well since it will be accessed too.

The plenum pull is much more involved just because of all the things that need to come off - much more likely you'll run into other things that will need to get fixed too because of the process. Things like broken injector connector plugs, new plenum coolant hoses since the old ones will be so hard, they'll have to be cut off, same for the fuel line hoses, etc...
