Small spot spot or oil on engine

I had same issue on my 2016, dealer said it is "NORMAL"
My engine getting more and more oil seep then finally they replaced gasket under the warranty but it happened again!
Mine looks worst than yours now but my warranty is over.

It's not normal, it just happens to all of these engines. Spray it with some some engine cleaner from time to time.

It's totally normal it's oil seep it doesn't just happen to these engines it happens to tons of engines that run perfectly fine for hundreds of thousands of miles. My 3.6 LLT Camaro had it as well and that thing was 4 yrs. old with 185k on it when I traded it in worse thing that ever happened was I replaced the alternator 2 weeks before I traded it in. The issue is it looks fugly and much worse then it really is.
