Injector leaking

Hello!

I've cleaned the intake manifold & replaced its gaskets some 10k kms ago. During that process I've also replaced al injector pipes and pipe clamps for new ones.
Now nr3 injector has a light oil mist on the pipe right at the injector. I was wondering if it was worth touching it, and if yes, should I undo and retighten the nut on the pipe, or should I just tighten it (without undoing it first).
To be honest I can't see how either would solve the issue, because all 6 pipes have been tightened the same (by me).
It's also unlikely that a 10k km pipe has developed a hairline crack IMO.

It's really just a mist that has accumulated on the pipe/nut over 10k kms, so I'm not sure if its worth to touch it, or chances are it would just get worse.

Thanks in advance
