AC fluid or radiator fluid?
I hit an 18 wheeler tire on the Interstate yesterday. Destroyed the front bumper, bent the ac condenser and broke the lower drive side of the radiator support. I have a light green fluid leaking slowly and I first thought it was from the radiator due to the color, but it appears as though it may be coming from the condenser.
I thought freon was colorless.

I would say that is radiator coolant if its the same color as in the radiator. Freon or other fluids used in air conditioning turns to a gas at room temperature, so if that leaked out as a liquid it would quickly turn to a gas.

I'm pretty certain that's radiator coolant. You more than likely have the green stuff in the lower part of the radiator and when it got smashed it leaked out. A/C freon will come out as a gas and will be extremely cold and will turn what it touches white with frost.
