Front Shock Replacement

I've recently noticed some greenish colored fluid in my garage floor by the passenger front wheel. In looking under the vehicle, it looks like it is coming from the front passenger shock.

I've done some searching and it appears there are some issues to replacing the front shocks... can anyone enlighten me?

I've read through my Haynes manual and it sounds pretty straight forward? Am I missing something?

I have a '97 EB Expy (4x4) with LLS. It's got 113K miles.

Thanks.

Are you sure it is not Coolant? Thats what it sounds like, Could have a leaking heat hose or some other coolant hose in that area.

That sounds like it might be the dran tube for the coolant. This is about where it comes out.
