Yeah that oil is exactly why people talk about driving cars up to temp for 20-30 minutes to get everything real hot. Also why you change your oil at least annually regardless of miles. It's just the result of repeated condensation cycles due to the PCV taking in moist air and the engine not getting hot enough to fully evaporate it out. It's a problem for people with short commutes or classic cars that get fired up more than they get driven.

Gonna recommend against the mechanical gauge anyway, it's a little tube that is connected to a pressurized oil supply. If it comes loose or vibrates and rubs through, you get a spray of hot oil all over whatever is near the leak, sometimes up under the dashboard, sometimes on to a hot exhaust. Highly recommend going without one and relying on the factory light, or spending what it takes for an electronic one.

I just looked it up and they do ($575), and they bypass that connector and provide a blanking plate for the firewall hole. It says their harness does not support the factory amp meter, which is the device that overheats that firewall connection in the first place. I mean, that's the route I'd go as well.
