Default 2003 A4 1.8T Coolant Leak?

Hey everyone I've had my B6 for a couple months now and love it but just recently noticed a leak and found out it's a coolant leak since the coolant reservoir is getting lower and it's a pinkish fluid, just like the coolant and by the time it hits the ground it's a little darker because of gunk and dirt it gathers. I looked under the hood and couldn't see where it's at but underneath I can see it dripping from but not really sure what it is or why it's leaking. Really don't want to take it to the stealership so any DIYs or anything would help. I attached pictures of where it's leaking, let me know if you can't see them. It's on the passenger side of the engine underneath.
Thanks!

I couldn't see any of those pics, but my advice is to check all the hoses that carry coolant for any excess dried out coolant. I would start by the coolant flange and the top hose that comes out of the thermostat, those were my problem areas in my old a4.
