Tranny/Power Steering Leak

I have a slow leak of either power steering fluid or tranny fluid it is on the passenger side of the truck. I see where the liquid is collecting on the bottom bolt of the header pipe. It is leaking and I can't notice a big drop in any fluids. It is a big enough of a drip to pool and with the exhaust being right there it is heating up and smoking. Wanted to see if there is anything I should look at before I take it in. 96 4runner 3.4 4wd 198k miles Thanks.

I would guess a coolant leak if you don't see drops in fluid levels. Plus it's that close to the block. Pictures would help
