Loud bang and liquid

Loud bang and liquid
2010 g37x 165k miles.
Just another normal day driving all of a sudden give it a little gas, gear changes then loud bang. Pull over to see this leaking. Any idea what this is leaking from? Thank you

What color is the liquid? That looks like the area where the condensation drains from the AC. Maybe the bang is not related?

Exact what socketz67 asked: what color is/ was the fluid?
Green or Blue = antifreeze/ coolant. Likely the heater hose coupling broke. When that plastic gives up a "bang" is often heard. Common issue with a relatively easy and inexpensive repair.
Red = transmission fluid. Highly unlikely a trans line broke.
Clear/ Water = AC evaporator drain = normal.
Give us more details and we can more accurately pinpoint the issue.

Clear and odorless - like water- is likely the AC drain. Perfectly normal.
Unless your car is exhibiting issues or has a problem I think your good to go.
As for the bang, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, could have been a rock in the road.
Again, if the car runs fine then likely you'll be fine.
