My question is: Has anyone used a specific product that worked? This is a 1995 Chevy lumina 3.1, 72K

If I can't find something to stop this leak. Will it get worse? Also there is no increased moisture from exhaust that I can withness.

Thanks to Everyone In Advance!
Question, does yours have the one heater hose routed around in front of engine, along frame rail of car as a metal pipe with short rubber hose at engine end and at firewall end? If so check the metal pipe between them along bottom edge of the frame, located in front of the engines bottom pulley, mine rusted thru a pin hole there and though bottle was always getting low, you could never see any coolant any place on car, apparently dripping off to the road. if thats the problem, replace metal pipe with new rubber all the way, just a suggestion...
