Default Panamera turbo coolant leak

Hi - I was loosing coolant very slowly on my 2013 Panamera turbo with 89k miles. I pressurized the system to see where it was leaking from and found the leak below the car. However I can’t figure out what this actually is. Is it the water pump ? I’ve posted my video below :

any help will be appreciated!

hard to tell. That looks like the liquid cooled alternator?

Also have you checked to make sure its not come from above that part?
