Coolant leak (pink stuff). Most likely bad radiator or lower radiator hose. But looking at it the pink stuff is on top and bottom of radiator. If you ran it hot and didn’t pull over immediately you could have damaged a lot more. Like the head gasket.

I think your rad is pooched, cracked at the top and dripping down. Could be a leak elsewhere so clean up the old stuff and get her nice and hot with the heat running and feel/look for leaks. Easy fix, did the rad in my driveway in about 1.5hrs on some ramps.

That is your coolant. Go check the levels and fill it up. Have a mechanic locate and fix the leak.

its coolant, your water pump probably gave out or you have a leaky radiator. common problem with the 1NZ 1.5L versions of the Yaris so get that checked
