That shouldn't be hard to find out. Anything with the tran has red fluid. Brake lines have clear fluid. Follow the line. Assuming it's a steel or aluminum line. They are not hard to make. The tools are loaned at auto zone.

If your brakes don’t work, it’s a brake line. They are hard lines. If it’s belching fluid just at idle, Trans cooler line. Attached to the power steering pump or rack...power steering line, which also uses ATF.
