Leak at the bottom of the engine, any ideas?

The dealer said hopefully its just residual oil from production, less than 250mi on the bike when noticed.

That's clearly coming from that case bolt. Did the dealer bother checking the torque on it when he told ya that? I'd check that to be safe. Then just keep an eye on it. You don't appear to have gasket leaks. ;)
