yellow orange is an odd color for brake fluid unless it's contaminated-- it's also possible that some of the bearing grease in that front hub might have liquefied from the temps and the caliper was the lowest point to drip down off of.
Bearing grease is a good possibility. The residue on the wheel was pretty thick, way thicker than brake fluid would be, now that I think about it. And that could be why it didn't sling



I'll check the brake fluid reservoir. If I lost any it would be quite apparent
