You need more pics so we can see what and where we are looking at. Driver side? Passenger side? looking up or down?

Do you know what it is for? Coolant?

That was looking through the passenger side it's coming from the expansion tank at the bottom and ends at a c clip connector under wheel well. It has coolant coming out of it

Looks like a hose to the transmission heat exchanger. Hose 11?

There is a puddle of what appears to be coolant but there is another fluid puddle within the coolant that is of a dark brown color. The two fluids aren't mixed though

Okay so now I've ordered the hose to the heat exchanger... but I need to replace the heat exchanger thermostat also since it isn't sealing right. I can't seem to locate it anywhere even on "realoem" anyone know where to find this ?
