Check the radiator neck where the hose clamps on.

I've seen them crack on the bottom and it's hard as heck to see what the issue is - it just looks like the hose is weeping - but its the neck of the radiator that's gone. Wiggle the neck slightly while it's running but still cold, it may make it more obvious where the problem is - the cracks can be HARD to see.

I just went through this on my M3 - pain in the neck as a simple top hose job that should have taken an hour stretched into a couple of days waiting on a new radiator.
