Leak

I was working on my S03 today and noticed a leak at the engine area on the passenger side. Found a few drops on the ground, the substance seems clear but oily texture.

I have attached a photo of the area that I believe to be the source or near the source of the leak. The area is blacken by accumulated dirt sticking on.

Anyone got some idea of what the problem might be?

Forgot to press the button. Here's the photo.

I don't think it is the engine oil since it is not dark in color. Could it be the coolant?

Don't think it is the transmission oil since the leaked substance is not dark or thick.

I was hoping the description of the substance (clear/thin/oily) and the area of the leak could narrow it down to a few candidates. Will do a round of fluid inspection this weekend.
