Hey Guys, first time Jeep owner here. I noticed my Jeep was leaking something under the front of my Jeep after my coolant bottle fell out of place. I Put it back and thought everything was okay. An hour later once I parked it I noticed it was still leaking. I pulled the bottle out (it was full) and it was dry. Dirty, but dry. Not I look at it now my coolest is almost low. I am thinking this is coolant now. But, I cant seem to find the leak. Any tips on what this is or of it is coolant than where is it leaking and how do I fix this? Thanks.

Hard to tell for sure, but it appears to be either the harmonic balancer seal or the timing chain cover seal. The harmonic balancer rubber appears to be dried and cracked; might thing about replacing the balancer if the leak is one of the seals.
 
If ever there was a time for a coolant flush, this might be it 😮
