Always in the same place, not oil, assumed it was coolant even though coolant level has always remained stable. Such a tiny amount, it's been nothing more than an annoyance for a very long time. Wipe it off and a few days later it's back.
Had the tank off recently, replacing fuel pump, noticed the four bolts holding sending unit weren't as tight as they should be. No sign of a leak, tightened all four to spec and didn't think anything of it. But.... since then, the streak is gone.
Just a heads-up here in case anyone else has this streak. Sending unit is directly above red box on RH side of tank gusset.
