Default Need help, ideas?

Well, driving down the road today I all the sudden had smoke coming from engine bay. So I pulled over and checked it, had antifreeze coming down at a good rate from the back of the skid plate onto the cats and bottom of the tranny. I am hoping its just the water pump that went since I have heard squeaking noises for awhile, but mainly only after we had rain so I didnt think much of it. But do you think it could have been a head gasket or the freezeplug?

Gonna pull the skid plate off tomorrow and see exactly where its coming from just trying to get ideas at the moment.
