Any idea what is leaking. Car made weird burning smell from radiator engine Bay Area. I know very little about vehicles. I’m a new driver. I got a very late start but I’ve had this vehicle for a week it was a gift for doing better in life and just is a bummer. Have no idea what’s wrong. Breaks gave out as well. Black tube looks to be dripping some type of brownish slightly oily substance. Any ideas

I am going to second the brake fluid leak. That's right above the brake master cylinder area. Lots of fluid, no surprise the brakes quit working.
