Could be fuel out the tail tank...........but it shouldn't be!!! Perhaps just a wee bit, but it really shouldn't be venting fuel.

Water from the icebox drain. Warmer it is more water drains...

I agree with that...there is a heated drain mast; it is forward of the tail tank and the aft compartment door.
