This, don't diy your car a/c. You probably wouldn't try to diy your fridge.

The dealer added dye through the low pressure port, it isn't abnormal to have an accumulation in there, in fact it's reassuring. If that valve was leaking, that little puddle wouldn't have stayed there.

Also, r134a is some serious greenhouse effect stuff, about 1400 times more than CO2 so there are strict rules about how it is to be handled, please go to a qualified mechanic that will evacuate the system properly, leak test it correctly and recharge it right.
