Welcome to the forums MART,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X250 forum. This is the place to post technical questions about your model.

That's a major fluid leak. The usual culprit is the brake pipe (item 13) or union connection (item 22) to the caliper but the fluid in that area appears to be more splash than source. I'd next investigate a failed caliper piston seal.

Looks like from the caliper piston seal, the piston seals tend to go on these cars if you don't change the brake fluid every 3 years. Rebuilding the caliper is simple if you have a compressor to push the piston out, or any competent brake shop can do it on or off the car. The rebuild kits can be found online.
