Major coolant leak!

Major coolant leak!
Well it looks like the big one has finally happened!! It was fairly cold this morning (~15ºF) and now I have a major coolant leak that has resulted in an empty coolant reservoir. There are specs of coolant all over the top and rear of the engine.
I am pretty pissed about this, because there was no warning light on the dash in the entire 30 minute drive! Who would design a car without a temp gauge that also has no warning about low coolant!

Do you have a part number for the sensor? I suppose it's possible that the coolant all leaked out when I shut off the engine (I noticed quite a bit of coolant on the driveway this morning where the car last was before it got towed).

Is there even a coolant level sensor?

I don't see anything that looks like a sensor in this parts list!

Interestingly, the '09 model parts list looks the same. So maybe it's measuring coolant somewhere other than on the coolant reservoir tank??

If you look at the water outlet fig 9 isn't there a sensor in there. Would this be the temp sender for the ECU which could also act as overtemp. warning. Where does the OBDII get it's water temp from.
