Hello, went to install radiator guards and took off my fairings and noticed no coolant. Only 4000 miles, I should have at least a little in the reservoir. Then I glanced and noticed some leaking coming from the engine. What do you guys think? 2022 Panigale V4 base.

I don't know what the "notorious V4 coolant warranty" is, but I suspect you have a failing water pump. What does the left side look like?

What does it look like in the V valley on the left side? I wouldn't ride it anymore and get it to a dealer for warranty work.
 
Are you sure it's cooling fluid?
Doesn't look like a pumpfailure.
Isn't the coolinghose connection leaking? It starts really high on the housing.

oil leak, then another oil leak, and then a new oil leak... Anyone else?

I'm still under warranty but dang, June and July in the shop over and over. Irony, it started when I had a meeting at the Ducati factory at Borgo Panigale. On the way home I stopped at the top of the mountain pass and noticed a puddle. Lucky me I was at the top, so I coasted home :30 mins all...

This maybe be something similar?
 
I think changing all the big clamps so you can tighten them as the hoses age is a good idea. Ducati made a running change to the waterpump cut in on 1/1/21.
