Could be this leak. I have it. It's an easy fix. No sweat!

Just needs more silicone.
Thanks, yeah after you mentioned it, I checked the area... inconclusive. I ran a paper towel around the plate area and just got some black smudges that I think could be random dirt... no fluid/wet oil on the towel. And no oil deposits baking on the overpipe below. I guess I will keep an eye on it though. I plan on mentioning the smell to the dealer on my next oil change which will come up soon...
