Default Oil leaking in the engine bay?
There seems to be quite a bit of oil on the pipe leading out from the radiator.

Anyone know why this might be?

Check your power steering hose coupling is not leaking and dripping down onto the radiator hose

Mine was

I cleaned it up with CRC, and then monitored the leak. Mine weeps very very very slowly, so I just clean up the drip once every 3 months and I don't bother worrying about it.
