Oil leaking from Vacuum Line

I just bought a 2014 GTC Speed with less than 1500 miles. The car is like new, but it leaks oil from the vacuum line that's just in front of the passenger back tire. Any idea?

It may be any of the following - damaged vacuum line/connection; faulty component connected to the vacuum line; or oil contamination in the vacuum system. Does the leak happen continuously or intermittently?

It seems to leak once I come back from driving it, small puddle each time, just under the end of the vacuum line, nowhere else. I assume it must leak as well while driving. Thw leaks stops after parked for a while. A Bentley dealer in San Diedo (i live in Arizona) did a multi point inspection before i got the car at 991 miles, I wonder if they may have over filled it. I've now added about 250 miles in the last few weeks, and looking to see now if it reduces each time I take it out or if about the same amount of oil, but have not been able to figure that out yet.

I have not had the best experience with my previous GTC at the local dealership, so i went to my local mechanic, he said the transmission is fine, but he can't say about the transfer case and that i would need to go to Bentley to get it checked, so i came here first

Thank you
