I have a leak coming from under the front of my engine on the driver side and it seems to be a brown or amber color? I have seen that it may be anything from oil to gasoline but I can not identify it. I have check my oil level and it is still fine. The leaked fluid covers roughly a 18 by 8 inch area and I am pretty sure it is odorless. Any advice on what to do or what it may be?

Check the power steering fluid level.

Oil would be brown/black, coolant would be orange (Dex Cool), trans fluid would be red.

If PS level is good, have a dye put into oil to trace leak with UV light.
