Oil Leak or Condensation?

After washing the car and detailing the engine today, I noticed a small spot of what seems to be oil near one of the lines right before the intake. My buddy told me he thinks it's a little oil condensation, but to keep an eye on it. Anyone else experience this or know what it is? Hellcat has 540 miles on it with a proper 500 mile break-in. See attached pics.

I still get a small amount like my original picture, but only after very spirited driving. Under normal driving conditions, it stays clean. Any ideas what it may be? I am hesitant to take it into a dealer for such a small leak.

Mine is definitely oil, but it's very little.

Mine has the same residue under this connection. It looks like a very small vapor leak of some kind. I didn't think it was anything to worry about. I've seen similar things on many other cars at these types of connections. Interested to hear what the dealership says though!
