I noticed a liquid substance when I was under the car, on the underside of the coolant pump. The coolant looks like it was mixed between red and yellow, but it also looks like oil. I can't seem to tell. Anyone have any idea what and where this leak may come from? Thanks

It sure looks like oil leak to me but hard to tell where it's coming from. It's a bit unusual unless you have very high mileage or oil has not been changed at least 1-2 times a year or every 12,500 miles. It's best to take it to the mechanic.

Oil. Wipe everything off and they run the car for 15 minutes without driving and look again. Might be able to find source. Check oil level too.
Spot on. That was exactly the problem, near the top of the water pump, screws were very loose, it was leaking from there and travelling down to that area. Thank you very much.
