Default Poked evaporator drain tube, now other side of engine is leaking something?

I noticed a gurgling noise when going through turns today so I figured it was a blocked evap drain tube. (I have a fairmont so it has climate control with A/C always on). I pushed a cable tie into the tube about 15cm but nothing came out - no crap, no water. Then I noticed a drip coming from the OTHER side of the engine bay, just behind the power steering pump and underneath the exhaust heat shield.

Is this just a bad coincidence or has me poking into one place magically created a leak elsewhere??? I think it may be coolant as it looks like a pipe runs under there. :( I'm going to pull off the heat shield once the engine has cooled for a better look.

In the meantime, any ideas? Is this a common prob?
