The oil pressure gauge is mechanical and the fitting or line is leaking.

Yes, i am still alive.
I recently noticed an oil stain, large enough to be transferred
every drive
to the toe of the left shoe, at the extreme left front of the
240D's floor
mat. I changed the vacuum shutoff on the car a couple of years ago, so
could be residual oil in the vacuum line. I don't think this is a
recent
event, since the toe of my left shoe has seemed to "darken" for
about the
last year, but I assumed it was "crud" to be blamed on the age of
the car.
... Anything I should look at other than the vacuum line?
This isn't a catastrophic amount of oil. Maybe a quarter teaspoon
on the
floor mat. And to answer the obvious question, the car shuts off
just fine.
