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.

appreciate the response. Trying to find the part number for that hose and I can't seem to find it.

The transmission has some slippage which went away with drain and fills for about 1 year, now it came back - but suspect it's due to low fluid.
I'm about to do the transmission filter, but will probably hold off on radiator as it's a back up car and trying to not put too much into it unless necessary.


part 15? - when i look online it's a straight hose, whereas the one on the car seems molded.

I concur it’s #15 on the diagram. It looks molded and not straight in your photo.

I’d definitely give that hose a second look. It doesn’t appear to be seated properly and the clamp does appear to have been moved at some time. If you look closely I added two red arrows to your photo.

I’d return it. If you install it then it leaks you’re out time and money.
