I just got my car and noticed some leaks from some places, and during the investigation, came across some things that I have no idea what they are. If anyone can shine some light on what they are and what they do, i would greatly appreciate it.

First one, this hose left a puddle on the ground, and I am not sure what it is or where it goes. It is coming out of the firewall behind and below the intake manifold.
From top of engine bay (passangers Side)

From under car (passangers Side)

This is also from under the car, but have no idea what its to

Pass. Side)

And now I am assuming this is just a Shield for the oil pan, but if I am wrong please let me know know.

ok the first picture looks like its part of the a/c to let all the moisture out, second seems like the same thing, like if water spills inside of the car it drains out. And im not too sure about the rest.

Yea the fluid from the hose looked like water, but I wanted to make sure.

For the third picture, where does it go? I think it may have been from HICAS?(maybe someone took it out) or rear brakes (hope not). As for the 1st two, those are A/C condensation. Last one no idea... more pics of third?

the Last thing is a brace for the transmission and black you need those find the right bolts and put that back on

So the A/C condensation, thats normal right? I will get more pics of the 3rd pic tomorrow if I can. The car is a 92 base model, how do i know if it has HICAS?

Any idea where i can get these bolts? I figured it was important, I guess I can talk to some guys who are parting out their cars.

hahahhahahaha third photo is a pic of your lower clutch line going to your clutch slave and its sitting outside its holding bracket which means some jack ass before either A lost the circlip to hold in the bracket or B. did an auto to 5 speed swap and did not bother. As for the last one thats a transmission brace for automatic transmission. Where did you get your car? It definitely looks like it could have been an auto to 5 speed swap car. They only put those braces on the 89-90 manual trans and 89-93 auto trans cars. in the 91 up manual trans cars they did not use them.

In the thirp picture, I know it looks like that little piece is connected to something, but it really isn't. I will try to get different pics. I am not sure if the car was a auto-5-spd swap or not, but I can try to find out. If that brace was not used in manual tranny's, do I need it or should I just take it out? Thanks for the help by the way.
