2013 ML350 Bluetec Rear Trans/Trans Case seepage

I put my SUV up on the lift and it looks like it has a slow seep near the rear transmission tail mount. Has anyone else seen this? I just bought this and I assume its covered under warranty

Nothing is dripping on the ground but i can see 2-3 drops forming at the bottom of the case and the exhaust seems to be getting a little bit of oil on it and smelling a little.

37000 miles on the vehicle.

Its at the dealer to get looked at. I was just curious if this is a known problem with others. The dealership said they have not seen this before. 36k miles and a leaking trans seems very premature. I have had cars with 100k miles without a single leak. I cant even tell where its coming from, its more forward of the mount because it seems to be collecting at the mount
