You should have posted this under the 2.5L Power train section firstly. Secondly, Define behind the cover. Sandwiched between the front cover and back? Behind it completely? Only thing on the passenger side for coolant I can think of is the coolant crossover.

oil cooler hoses leaking may look like a drip from behind the pass side timing cover if youre not familiar with the layout. or upper hose at engine will easily drip in that area and wont be visible from the top

other than that as Hinshaw said there is nothing there
