You have a water leak out of the starter? I would look again.

The best person to properly diag any leak is the person who the machine is in front of.

It must be behind the starter where I can’t see

Leaking freeze plug in the block but you need to ascertain if there is other damage as freeze plugs don't usually leak unless the coolant froze in the block. What the freeze plugs are for, to let the expanding coolant freeze and push them out. Sounds to me like you have other probably major issues too.

If a freeze plug rusts out they will deffently leak! Radiator needs
to be flushed out every so often so there's no rust
Does the juice in the radiator look rusty??

They sell starting fluid in a spray can. Maybe it needs a refill.
