Leaking A/C compressor oil

Ok so it isn't coolant like I originally thought, its the A/C compressor leaking. Is leaking in a strange spot though. Has anybody ever seen this before? The 4 bolts holding it together are tight.

And, no, the block heater isn't on that side. In your picture, you can see the exhaust back pressure tube and the fuel bowl drain tube so we know you are on the passenger side. The block heater is on the driver's side, rear cap of the oil cooler right above your oil filter.

That is leak detection dye they put in AC systems. Congratulations. You found the leak. Looks like the compressors leaking from the joint where its put together. Its actually a common spot on a lot of AC compressors. Check all the AC hoses in that area as well.
