Unhappy 1996 Z28 Lt1 HELP!! Leakage

Whats up everyone, I had a question. In my 96 Z, I somehow have a huge leak that runs from the passenger side carpet all the way to the back carpet were you place your feet. Its soaked with some sort of oily orange/red fluid. At first it use to just leak water in the front passenger side in which was the heater core that was messed up so I deleted it and bam problem fixed. Then a few weeks later I now have a oily orange/red liquid soaking the rear passenger carpet. Any help on how to stop that leak and how to remove it from the carpet?

Sounds like Dexcool. Perhaps residue from the first leak.
