Can someone identify this electrical connector beside the oil dipstick on my 2009 MCS

Hello folks!
I believe I have an oil leak that is not too extensive yet but seems to be around the valve cover. It was replaced after it was chewed by mice a bit. This was about a year ago and I can tell they replaced it because it has no emblem.
When I look down near the oil dipstick I can see oil on what looks like an electrical plug-in connector. Can someone identify this? I'm trying to figure out how the oil is getting down there. Thanks in advance!
