I noticed my left hand side upper OCV sensor has this oil contamination in the electrical plug connector.

I haven't gotten a CEL yet, and it's been roughly 3,000 miles since I noticed.

I bought a spare OCV sensor to have on hand, should I change it out now? Or wait till a CEL to eventually come on to replace the sensor?

On a side note, I always use dielectric grease on all my engine harness connectors to prevent corrosion from the elements (if they don't have a rubber/silicone weather seal in the plug), wouldn't this oil contamination have the same effect as dielectric grease?
