I have a 2005 Yamaha 9.9 4 str

I have a 2005 Yamaha 9.9 4 stroke with maybe 10 hours on it. I changed the engine oil the other day and while running the motor in a test tank I noticed water is dripping out of the main engine oil plug. The oil plug is teflon with a brass bolt head in the middle. The water seeps around the teflon part of the plug. The old oil did not appear to have water in it. When I check the new oil with the dipstick it looks fine as well. Any ideas of what the problem may be?
 
Could be condensation? continu

Could be condensation? continue to monitor the oil for any signs of water...the oil will go milky with water in it.
