How does rear braking work on a GMC S15?

My 1995 S-10 is leaking from the backside of the engine. I can’t see any visual signs on the top, but underneath a steady stream is coming down between the starter and oil pan.

When going into 4WD, you hear the clicking of the relays and feel it shift and hear a low whine/rumble. 4LO seems to be working as advertised.
Why does the engine light come on on my 95 S10?
My 95 S10 engine light comes on and temperature on gauge is higher than normal. Light comes on after driving a few miles and engine is hot. Have not noticed if the fan comes on.
