(Urgent) Oil leak on the upper right side of the driver's seat

I reported a leak above the accelerator pedal on the driver's side on the forum
and requested a repair from the dealer on November 14th.
I received the car today, the 15th at 5pm. The leak was coolant.
After removing the interior dashboard under the driver's seat and observing it with an endoscope,
it was found that the leak was from the outside, collected in the duct, and sprayed into the interior by the strong wind.
The tightening of the clamp that coupled the indoor and outdoor pipes in the engine bay was found to be too weak,
so a replacement was used and tightened tightly.
After a test drive, there was no more leak and I am satisfied with the service.

***Please let me know whether I should make this a new thread or write it as a reply to the original post.
 
There is no oil in that area. The only fluids that comes into the vehicle is A/C refrigerant or engine coolant. Coolant would be very hot

That certainly looks like the A/C condenser water drip, which is fairly common, especially if it is humid.

Here's the technical service bulletin for the repair. As stated above, it is a 6-9 hour service that involves removing the dash
Yikes. That’s a big concern in Florida.
