Leak problem

I have a slight problem. Originally I wasnt planning on fixing these leaks because by July I should have a TII motor. However a leak has popped out of nowhere so I figured why not just fix em all. so far I know of 2 main leaks. One is in the pictures and the other one I can't really see. The 3rd picture is the stain it left. The leaky hose is indicated by the red arrow. It seems to be clear and I dont know what it is. Also when it drips down all the way there is some oil it hits as well because on the floor its a puddle of oil. Anyone have any ideas of what it is?

ALso my differential is leaking from time to time. Anyone know where it could be leaking from? Dont need much help with this because I am going to go under and check, but I am sick at the moment and so yeah.

I also have a leak that comes down to the oilpan and drips to the floor. This one isnt too bad but I might as well fix it. I dont know if its the oil pan or something above. Also there is a leak somewhere above my oil cooler. So if anyone has some input weither it be an idea for where the leak is or ideas for replacement.

Picture 1. I know the other hose is leaking too hahahaah coolant leak T-T But ya it goes into the TB

Picture 2. Closer look

Picture 3. THE PUDDLE!! AHHHH WTF!!

it's a coolant line going the the thermowax system on the throttle body. it makes it so your car idles a little higher when it is cold so it doesn't stall as easily. a lot of people (me being one of them) just remove it to simplify things. you can just cap off the two lines on an NA, or just connect them to each other.
