Red type of fluid leaking

["Dipalma, Tony" <tdipalma@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a 98 Jetta GLX manual transmission with 65k miles and recently
noticed that there is a red type of gritty fluid leaking from the bottom
front of the car. Now, I know its not steering, break/clutch or motor oil so
it has me wondering what the hell it is. Could this be transfer case,
differential or gear box fluid? Is there such a thing in a manual Jetta?
Please advise!

Thanks,
