Found a leaking hose, right next to the headers. If you bend down and look straight into the engine, you can see it right next to them with an opening at the bottom leaking what looks to be water or coolant. Not sure though.

I couldn't see anything it would possibly connect to that was close, but there shouldn't be anything leaking.

I don't have a helm manual quite yet so I have no clue what it is.

Also, any chance this is hurting performance?

 

AC drain?

 

So it shouldn't be connected to anything?

 

Move the car off the spot. Reach down and touch it. If it's water, it will be clear - no need to worry. It's most likely A/C condensation.
If it's coolant, it will be greenish and feel slippery. Worry.

 

if it comes out of the firewall and points down to the ground, thats the drain line for the a/c evaporator core. nothing to worry about at all. its supposed to drain to the ground.
