Sounds to me like it's the power steering cooling loop... if it is metal and does a zig zag back and forth ... it's Power Steering fluid.

Or, if you have an automatic, it could be auto tranny fluid. The auto trannies have a cooler in the passenger side nose of the car, and the fluid also makes a loop through the bottom of the radiator.
