Tranmission fluild leak

I'm trying to identify this slow leak of what seems to be AT fluid.
The area around this hose on the driver side seems to be the culprit but I didn't think there was any transmission fluid lines going to the front radiator area. This is a 2003 Pilot.
It's the smaller hose on the right.

If the radiator has never been replaced I'd strongly recommend a replacement due to age and history of radiator failures and/or mixture of the two fluids.

Please heed this advice. From what I've seen, the transmission cooler fittings on the radiator can rust/corrode from the inside out, meaning a visual check of these fittings is NOT assurance they are fine.

I'll also echo @plplplpl suggestion for AT-205 if you still find leaks after you confirm the fittings and lines are in good condition.
