Default Leaky Something

Today I spent the day doing an oil change, spark plug change and interior detail on my 2010 Ram 1500 SLT. When I backed it out of the garage I found a puddle of a clear oily feeling liquid on the floor. Upon further inspection it appears that this is coming from a small tube on the passenger side of the firewall which I assume is a drain for the HVAC. I don't know what this fluid is, any ideas?

No, not water. I have done some research and it appears that my A/C evaporator has leaked. I didn't know until last night that there is oil in the A/C system. I thought it was just refrigerant. I guess the truck will be going into the shop.

I would bet on AC condensation drain.
