Actually, I am leaking coolant/water there too.

I just noticed it recently, the yellowish color you see is coolant (smell to make sure)

Also, check your oil to see if its cloudy looking. you DO NOT want your coolant to be mixing with your oil, if it is, stop driving it immediately.

As far as I can guess, we have a coolant leak from maybe our water pumps, or somewhere else along the front cover maybe.
