Default Oil seepage at the bottom of the dipstick t00b?
I just noticed that a ~4-5 "square inch" area at the base of my dipstick tube has dirty oil on it.

Anyone else have that problem?

Suggestions on a fix?
-clean area and "set" the tube into the block "better" with a hammer?
-take to dealer :cringe:
-leave it be and forget about it...

With the JDM shield you can look around the pass. side of the header and see it clearly.

I saw it first when I shown a light at the tube to help when replacing the dipstick.
