Sorry, I didn't know where else to put this. This is a 2014 G63. This part appears to be leaking water or coolant, but I don't know exactly what part it is or what it's called. Any help?

Looks like the power steering reservoir. From what I have read on other models.... The source of leaks at times. There is apparently a rubber seal that needs replacement when this happens.

That seems to be a common OEM for german imports. BMW has the same. Like what Tricky RIck said, there is an o-ring under the cap. Although Ive replaced the o-ring on mine (BMW) but it still didnt stop a top portion of the reservoir to be moist.

Remedy was to put a sock over it. I cut up a sock in half and cover it. So the sock gets wet and absorbs the dust. Once dirty, I just replace the sock and keep the reservoir clean
