I notice a fluid leak the other day. At first I thought it was a transmission line, but after looking I cannot find anything. I noticed a red fluid (no, its not blood) on the a-arm on the drivers side where is mounts to the frame. Not a lot, just a few drips. When I looked above the a-arm mount, everything was dry. Thinking it came from the road or something, I wiped it off and it came back. I am confused. Above the a-arm mount there is zero oil and everything is dry. Do the a-arm bushing have some sorta built in oil lubrication? It appears to be coming out of the a-arm bushing, but I have never seen a a-arm bushing with oil in it. Any ideas?
Leak?

there is power-steering fluid reservoir right on the driver's side shock tower.

Im with Quik, pretty good bet its power steering fluid. Either from the pump or the reservior, both of which are in the same vicinity.
