Default 97 civic cx transmission leak

I'm having a manual transmission leak transmission fluid. How do I know its transmission fluid? Cause it's really bright yellow and not dark like oil.. I also have a bit of an oil leak but I know where that's coming from so I'm not worried about that. I cant seem to find the tranny leak.. it seems like the transmission was a bit covered with the leak and dripping at the bottom. Are there any usual suspects? Let me know where and what to look for. Thanks

yes, noob question. I'd still clean it up. and inspect. Hopefully you fill through the proper fill hole.
