Default leaking tranny fluid? and bogging

Wen i leave my blazer sit over night or somtimes even a short period of time i come back to find a spot on the driveway about 4" around i go to smell it and its anti freeze and it is red in color (so is dexcool) so i tried to see where i it is coming from and i cant see exactly all i can see is that it is dripping down the side of the bell housing and directly landing on the header pipe that crosses over.?.?.? any ideas?

Next problem is wen i go to start off from park my motor boggs for about a 1/4 mile then is alright. could that be a fuel filter or fuel pump issue? i do not have a check engine light on so i dont kno if anything would come up on the computer if scanned

all help will be greatly apprectiated

First one sounds like an intake leak.
Second could be anything from coolant that got in the cylinder(s) causing misfire to fuel/ignition problems. Since you said it goes away after a short time I would rule out filter/pump for now because I don't see any good reason gas would flow any better after time went by. Does it do it after you stop every time or only the first time it starts?

If its dripping from the bellhousing its either the front corner of the pan,or front seal. if its the pan,just replace the pan gasket,and do a 5 quart/filter change while its off. If its the front seal,have fun. You have to drop the trans.

Is this like a grumble you can power through? Like a hesitation? Or does it stall out?
