Camshaft sensor oil leak

Anyone had oil leaking from the camshaft sensor before? Not sure if I'm going to have to replace it but seems to be coming straight through the connector rather than around the sensor/seal. Annoying as it seems like it's still working fine. I guess if it doesn't cost much I can just replace it but I'm betting it's not that cheap...

Probably the cam seals or o rings. The cam sensor is just an electronic sensor held in by a 10mm nut

Gave it a really good degrease yesterday so I'll have a look again soon but yeah, seemed to be coming out of the sensor connector itself. Might be the oring as you say but where does one get a replacement oring? haha

Genuine. Or remove the cam sprocket and front casing and find the oring size in an oring kit
