Default For those who are tech saavy, I need your help!!!

So, yesterday I noticed there was a small puddle underneath the car. It is located directly underneath the centre of the engine.

When I jacked up the driver front side of the car, I noticed what appears to be a leak. A good sized area of the cover is wet.

I touched the fluid and it's described as a reddish/brown. The texture is slippery like oil. However the odd thing is the fluid doesn't have a smell. So i'm doubting whether it's engine oil, as that has a pretty distinct smell.

I've attached several photos from reference. All photos were taken from the driver front side.

Any idea of what it could be?

Yup, that's the transmission and probably tranny fluid esp. if it's reddish/brown.
