2009 Prius leaking red fluid from rear passenger side

2009 Prius with 214,000 miles on it. Leaking this red fluid behind the rear passenger side tire. Fluid seemed pretty watery- there was a 10 minute difference between the first 2 photos and you can see it ran a lot. I included an action shot of where it’s dripping from- I’m not sure what the part is but it’s obviously super rusted through.. any ideas?

How bad is this rust

2009 saturn vue with a 5 speed manual fwd. This car has been sitting for a while and looks to have some rust issues.

I’ve tapped around under there and busted off whatever rust i could with a hammer.

is this ok to drive or should I look at getting a new car.
