Name/guess this symptom game....05 Boxster 987

Decided to leave home today and take the 987 Boxster for a spin...and saw this under my parking spot...never saw anything before as it's always clean and dry.

I'm wondering if anyone can guess what this might be before the I take it to the shop this week.

It is a manual car - no transmission fluid.
Car is not overheating
No noises
No CEL

I'm thinking failing water pump but there appears to be "oil" on picture too.
The residue looks like a thick white paste,
opened the oil filler cap and didn't see any chocolate shake.

I had an oil change done 2 weeks ago, I put less than 100 miles on the car since.
No white smoke, therefore I am eliminating Air Oil Separator hypothesis.
I checked the fluid levels.
Oil is halfway down???
Coolant is low???
What could be wrong?
