White fluid on driveway
Looked rather like wet paint, or fluid white grease. Was under the engine area. What could that be ?

water in oil makes it's a milky white color I'd look for an oil leak somewhere.

Coolant leaves a white residue when it dries. Not sure if that is what you saw.....just an offering.
Good Luck
