I don't see any green coolant leaking out. Is that pure water? If that's the case, running pure water is probably what caused it to crack. Water boils at 212° and steam creates a lot of pressure. I have had bad experiences from using water instead of antifreeze. I ran hot pretty often because the water would boil and most of it ran to the overflow because of the added pressure.
