Was looking under the hood and saw this!
Is the green stuff around there normal, or is it a small leak? Help please :|

No, not normal. Hose clamp not clamping tight enough. Assuming car is still under warranty, have dealer fix it.

Saw some too the other day and it is obviously a light leak, didn't really worry me much though. Not really a difficult fix, if that was the side of the block though I'd be alarmed.

After reading the title of this thread, I was expecting to find a rodent's nest. OP is lucky its just a seeping hose clamp.

2-5 min job, Get pliers to remove hose clamp, go to an auto part store and buy a manual adjusting hose clamp for like 2 bucks and put it on... Dont have to waste time going to dealer.
