Red fluid leak

[Dr Mark]

I have a 2008 Lexus 400h that has a small, red fluid leak under the front. I don't think it's radiator fluid. Feels like oil. Is it from the transmission?

It could be, as both the coolant and transmission fluid are pink/reddish.

Yup, tranny fluid would be my guest as a likely suspect.  Question is it directly from tranny, or tranny cooler in front of the radiator, or a line to or fro, or the power steering pump/lines?  Power steering pumps more often than not use power steering fluid.
