The only place for it to come from is the compressor.

Yeah, it’s probably coming from the air compressor. When I changed mine, I realized there was dry oil inside the entire air hose that connects the air compressor to the air dryer. That same hose also had a little bit of oil on the outside. It was not dripping oil, though. It just looked lightly soaked.
