Transmission fluid under radiator leaking

I noticed a little bit of what i think was transmission fluid leaking from the line going out from the passenger side transmission cooler hose under the radiator. I was wondering if that's something to worry about the spill wasnt too much, I started the car after noticing the spill and checked the radiator as well as the hose, and could not find any leaks, however the hose did look like oil spilled on it, which was weird. Has this happened to anyone else? And is this something to worry about?

Its a 2006 fx35 rwd

Thank you

oh okay thank you...one more question was urs leaking all the time? because i was under the car for 15min nothing was leaking...drove the car for one day n still nothing, but i can clearly see the oil on the hose and under the radiator, could it be something else?

Nope it never leaked, but there was a small crack, which was going too, or it already did small drops per dealer.
 
thats funny ur asking me because my uncle asked me the same question when i told him, i cant tell its mixed up with all the dirt underneath, its def oil tho. i checked the oil filter, which is relatively close to the hose but it was fine not a drop of oil. it must have been from the hose connecting to the transmission cooler under the radiator.
 
Park it overnight and put white paper towel underneath that spot, after the leak check too see colors. Also it might be power steering fluid, maybe you have a leak; power steering pump leak and etc. It might even be coolant leaking and stuff.
