Ugly leak above OS front chassis leg - intercooler hose

Any thoughts on the source of this insignificant little trickle and how best to access it?
Day 10 of ownership and lovin’ it.
Thanks
Pete

Above a plastic panel in that area (lever the centre of the plastic rivets out to remove them and the panel) is a lower intercooler hose connection, if the jubilee clip is not done up tight enough, or the hose is damaged, oil will seep out here.

Thanks so much. A hose I can live with. Something for a chilly morning.

Took this photo whilst replacing the lower steering shaft.

Can’t see any splits in the hose but have ordered a replacement.
Forgot to try tightening the clamp which I’ll do tomorrow.
Fingers crossed.
