Sudden oil leak today with smell of coolant

Hey everyone first post here. I’ve had the Boxster s about 8 months and everything has been fine. Taking it to the dragon in 2 days and did spark plugs and coil packs today. Took the car for a spirited test drive after and after a hard 1-2 shift I heard a very slight squeal and thought it was interesting but then proceeded on. After I got back home I smelled coolant. Thought that was odd. Went inside then came back out about 5 minutes later to a pool of oil and maybe something else under the car. Can’t tell where it’s coming from yet but it’s dripping off of the driver side rear support brace right under the sway bar. It’s oily in the way it looks but I also smell coolant. Something tells me I may be changing my trip plans. I’ve put 3300 miles on the car and this is the first issue. I guess better now than 600 miles away at the dragon. Anyone have any ideas?
