2008 C350 Fluid

Got a fluid leak on my driveway. Taking it in tomorrow but I am just curious to what you all think it is. Yellowish Gold Fluid and the picture underneath the car was taken under the driver side door towards the middle of the car. Appreciate the responses.

Engine oil leaking from your cam plugs or centrifuge or vacuum pump . Common problem.

It is a plug missing in the back right of the motor. Looks to be the cam plug. Looks like 2 areas leaking on the right hand side.
