coolant leak

ive always had a small leak from the coolant lines, but it got real bad last week. i thought i fixed it, but im just gunna replace all the hoses and clamps soon. just wondering if anyone else had problems with the hose clamps or hoses leaking.\

you can see where the coolant has leaked onto the head pipe and stained as it burns away. its not a bad leak, just a drip every so often now. but im sure all the clamps jsut suck
