    only thing that could leak ound there would be fuel or most likely diff oil.
    You should be able to poke your head under and should be able to clealy see where its coming from.

    Smell? Just get under and take a look. If its coming from fuel hoses, fuel, brake hoses, brake fluid.

    If its fuel, its 99% going to be your breather hoses, you can see them from behind the access pannel in the rear right wheel well.

    Probably transmission oil leaking from the output shaft on the transmission or the vehicle speed sender. I'd park it in a different spot for a few days and see if it reappears.
