Water Outlet Hose Connector Leak

Literally just changed this hose on my 2011 due to a hairline crack in the plastic connector; within a few weeks of changing it, noticed a very small coolant leak around the connector again. Had to take the car out last week before I got a chance to investigate a fix, next time I checked under the hood, I noticed some coolant laying on top of the front edge of the engine casing - is it reasonable that the coolant leaking from the connector could travel that far after spraying out from the connector? Or am I possibly looking at a more complicated issue? Starting to feel like a full time job dealing with coolant leaks in the Cruze.
