Sorry, obvious question here. Since it's been warm, do you have your A/C on? The condenser will leak some water and is very normal. Did you sample some of the residue on the floor to see if it's more watery vs oily? Any color if you do sample it? Might even try getting a regular piece of paper (white), and let it soak up to see color and it's consistency.

If it's not the WRX that has the leak, I suggest you look into getting some Depends©

do you have a oil catch can installed? your turbo may not be blown. from talkin to others and alot of reading it may just be blow by.
