Check the hose that is coming off the radiator, and runs towards the firewall, just to the driver's side of the throttle body. check the clamps and make sure it isn't leaking around there, or at the thermostat area.
Your waterpump may be leaking through the weep hole, as well. With that many miles, and being a 96, AND not knowing if it is still stock, I would replace the waterpump BEFORE anything happens, and also assume that it stops this problem as well.
Replace with only a white plastic or metal impellar, avoice the black plastic ones that shatter.
60-70 bucks and 25 minutes of your time.
