It’s very light oil like almost coolant but doesn’t smell like it. Here’s a pic from the top. It may be coming from the waterpump? The fluid doesn’t smell like coolant.

Possibly coolant. The reservoir is on that side and hose/tubes have been known to leak over time.

So it very well may be coolant but it isn’t coming from the reservoir tank. It may be coming from the engine side inside the belts. I’m guessing that’s a water pump.

Here are the coolant and heater hose breakdowns courtesy of your local Ford parts specialist ;). Not sure if they'll help but here you go anyway.

EDIT: I added another illustration with the timing cover. It could be a water pump leak seeing where the water pump is located and where the drop was forming from your photo.
