At one point that T was leaking. You can see the corrosion around the T fitting.

Its weird because at one point I cleaned the coolant leak up and tightened the fitting, then the next day after driving for a few minutes it was back. not sure if it can be coming from anywhere else beside that fitting tho.

The fitting or hose. Not a very good place to mount the temp sensor

It looks like you have too big of a hose or too small of a fitting on the right side. Tighten that clamp or just get it up to temp and see where it's actually coming from
