Burned tranny fluid may appear orange or light brown. The white is from water mixing with a petroleum product (oil, tranny fluid, etc...). Was the pavement wet from recent rain or anything like that?

I think I have seen an orange antifreeze, it was the kind that is supposed to be friendly to the enviroment. There is also orange washer fluid, but I guess you would know if you put that in the car.
