I washed the engine bay of my jimny a couple of days back using a hosepipe, being careful not to drench it!

I noticed today a puddle underneath the car


Initial thought was a water leak but fluids all fine and no signs of a leak. It looks like a compartment behind the headlight may have filled with water and was dripping


Guessing I must have done this with the hosepipe whoops! Bit of rust in this area but nothing drastic. This a common issue do you know?

It mainly collects in the front body mount bolts and drips off the bottom of the tread
