Hey Scotty & Community i hope you are all doing great.

i recently got a brand new 23 lexus gx 460 it has about 600 miles now (still breaking in the engine) 

i saw the undercarriage today and noticed some oil below the transfer on the exhaust pipe

here’s an image : https://postimg.cc/87brqhYj

i’m gonna take it to the dealership since it’s still under warranty but i want to go in with some knowledge on what is going on. Is this really a transfer case leak at such low mileage ?

thank you all for your help.

I don't know I can't really tell from a blurry photo. Did you actually find a leak?

Or is it just residue/spillover?

knowledge of what. This is an inspect and discover kind of situation.

Update
Went to the dealer apparently it’s just grease from the shaft connected to the transfer case.
There’s no leak thankfully
the parking spot where the vehicles sits is bone dry
On another note the vehicle slightly leans on the front passenger side, the dealer said that is normal for the GX but i’m not really sure.
Thanks
