mystery fluid leak

so i washed my car a week ago and didnt drive it for a week, couple days ago i see a puddle of liquid on the front right side (right underneath the fog light) it didnt look like coolant, i thought it was water from the car wash, so i driver around and no leak in the parking lot. come back home , next day same thing little puddle again, i am like wtf, so there is a drip under neath the bumper (coming from somewhere) its the the freaking windshield washer fluid, i had to collect it in a cup, it was light blue, on the floor i could not tell. so the questions is where is this leaking from, did any of had windshield washer leak. i did use my headlight cleaner before the carwash, i think that explains it, this was the firstime i used that feature and then the leak

Paul, I think so, i have no fluid loss in the front clutch reservoir, clutch feels normal before and after car start, although my Power steering reservoir is very very low, ?? but i have a leak in the windshield washer system for sure . ahh

Jonnydeep83 is infamous around these parts
My first guess would be that it's the flux capacitor fluid, especially if you drove it over 88MPH!

P.S. if it looks clear / bluish clear then it's definitely the flux fluid.
