Default Line leaking? (Pic Included)

This line started leaking. It is on the drivers side right by a pan. Which line is this? It is leaking red fluid. Need help diagnosing so I can get the part to fix it. First time messing with this type of thing. Thanks for the help!

Not the best picture, so I'm going to make an assumption that it's a tranny cooler line (goes to the radiator) and it's leaking transmission fluid.

The pan would be the transmission pan.

Again, this is an assumption totally ignoring the photo.

tranny runs passenger side, oil cooler/filter runs drivers side.

there is no fluid to leak in that line . it is the cable hooked to the park net switch. the vent tube or maybe the pan maybe leaking on that side
.

then my guess (hard to tell with those pics off my cell)

It's on the drivers side get someone inside the truck holding the brake and shifting the truck(making sure not to run you over) and see if it moves, I would say is the shift cable.

yea thats the shift cable. Your trans pan gasket may be leaking. Which isnt a big deal. it'll give you the chance to change the filter and fluid too.
