AC Evap Issue?

[Az4runnin]

Had AC Evac and Recharged. No Issues until 1 week later after vehicle sitting all night I see drip from drain tube on frame on to ground. Not just water but oil like and smelled. AC now has an Odd Odor. Still Blowing Cold. AC has Not been the same since Dash install and was Fine before. Any chance something could have been done during Dash Swap or is it just Old Age. System possible overcharged? Still Need AC here in AZ for at least another Month.

On a 2003 I would say old age, R&R of the dash pad wouldn't get to the evaporator, a lot more stuff has to be removed to be able to do any damage to it.

Most likely old age, sometimes the evaporator cores start leaking unfortunately.

Dash pad repalcement won't cause it because the HVAC assembly is bolted securely to the dash bar, the dash pad bolts over that so nothing in the HVAC system is touched.

Thats what I was afraid of...Looks like Dash is gona come out again to replace the evaporator.
