Default mocal thermostatic plate leak?

hello,

just wondering if anyone has experienced a faulty mocal thermostatic plate/leak? it seems there is some oil seeping from the thermostat area (as far as i can tell). i havent tried tightening the thermostat down, since im not sure if its advisable, but its not leaking much oil. i figured since its been almost 1k miles since i installed the oil cooler, i should check the lines (i check the oil level daily too)

please see the pic below..should i call Z1 for a replacement? should i try to torque it down first? thoughts??
