Small Leak, front left of engine bay

Last night and today after work noticed small amount of leakage under car, beside left front wheel. Not the consistency of oil.

What do you fellow owners think? Brake fluid, or power steering?

Might be either powersteering, brake, transmission fluid, or engine oil.
Like what metro said, what color?
Clear ~ light brown/black - brake fluid or even motor oil
light brown to black - motor oil
red ~ redish brown ~ brown - powersteering or transmission fluid
Don't forget to check your fluid levels and top off.

Thanks

Appreciate the replies. Turned out to be transmission fluid, easy fix.
