Ok, i was wondering who is this little guy in front of my AC condenser to the right side? It look like it is leaking coolant..My guess is transmission cooler? Didn't follow the connection yet...

it is your transmission cooler. It carries automatic transmission fluid.

If it has coolant in it, then you have issues with the trans cooler built in the radiator also, causing it to mix.
 






If it’s leaking coolant from that cooler, don’t drive it at all, unless you are looking to rebuild your automatic.
 












yes, it is leaking from the lower right hose connection, should be an easy fix. Also, was it standard to have the external tranny cooler?

 






yes a 94 automatic sometimes had an aux trans cooler in line with the fluid to fluid cooler in the radiator. Especially if the 94 came with the towing package.

Let us know on the coolant leak, there should not be coolant in there of course, it should only be Mercon
If there was coolant in there your transmission would already be fubar
