Its not engine oil. More than likely its trans fluid. Check your power steering fluid reservoir. Does the fluid level seem low? It'll have markings on the reservoir of either min/max or cold/hot. Is it leaking on the ground or a slow seep? It's tough to tell with that photo.

It's definitely hitting the ground, that's what caught my attention. So I checked the power steering fluid and it seemed kind of low. I don't have the keys right now to check the trans oil, but I'd be surprised if it was because it was pretty "clean/fresh oil" and didn't have that God awful smell to it that I'm used too when I changed my own cars trans oil. Anyways you think I'd have to replace the whole part? It only seems to be leaking in that particular area. Thanks for listening
