If it’s bright green Like this? then it may be air conditioning refrigerant. Power steering fluid is normally pinkish red.

Thanks It looks like it's coming from the air con pipes to be honest it has no odour I know some oils and lubricants stink this stuff is like eluminous green and no smell at all

Yeah I think an aircon leak check may be in order. Garages use a UV torch to identify source of leak, the reason the stuff is green is cos under UV light it REALLY shines.

The fridge gas will not hang about after it leaks out, it will flash off and traces will remain in the oil that came out of the leak, and that could be the green stuff that you are seeing, check to see if the AC switches on, if the gas system has a big leak it will not work.

The air con is still working but not as cold as it used to be its getting worse over time I've noticed there's more fluid appears when air cons been on I'm guessing it's the condensation runnig off the pipes and making the dye run

I'm guessing that some time in the past, that car has had an AC gas recharge and that dye was added at that time, normally no dye is included in the initial or subsequent recharges unless a leak is suspected, these systems by their design do lose some of the fridge gas charge over time.

I should have made that clear in my previous posting, but I seemed to imply the green stuff was just the oil and is it not.
