97 jgc ltd. loosing coolant

I have been losing coolant recently from my overflow container. Radiator is full so that's where it's going. It happened suddenly and is losing about a half gallon a week. Is this too much for a head gasket? Passenger floor is dry so I don't think it's the heater core. Also, i never see any on the ground. Any ideas? It's the 4.0 liter, 4x4. Thanks a lot.

Could be the Water Pump, it has a weep hole that will leak coolant when the bearing goes bad. could just be leaking from there and is burning off.

Could have a hairline crack in the side of the radiator, they are made of plastic. Check at bottom of radiator to see if wet at all.
