Please help..
 
With just 1 picture it's hard to say. In that particular area there are several fittings plus a couple of sensors that could be the culprit, or a combination of any of the above. You'll just have to clean the area up and keep an eye on it to pinpoint the leak.

Just because you have a drip from one spot, that doesn't necessarily mean that is where the leak is coming from, especially in that area as you have fans, belts, and just incoming air from the front that can blow crap all over the place.
