Just got done changing oil on the '05 QC and noticed before i changed it that the tubes that run near the oil filter to the engine, one says "Eng Front" one says "Eng Rear" had small amounts of oil on them causing a slight drip. It doesn't drip when the engine is off... only after running. Is this cause for concern? Could this be that there may be slightly too much oil in there causing a slight overspray?

thoes are your engine oil cooler lines. they do have o-rings that sometimes gives out and seep or in some cases just leak.
i would keep a very close eye on it. once you get the time and cash then i would change them out. remember all your engine oil runs through these lines so you dont want to lose the oil. the oil lines are not to pricy so depending on how mechanically inclined you are you may be able to change them.
TSB on the oil cooler lines. I've had mine replaced twice for free. Next time I'm going with Stinkers lines.

Stinker's replacement SS braided lines. Very easy to install. If you can change you oil you can change your lines.

my lines keep busting what stinkers contact onfo? and could this be a symptom of a bigger problem?
oem lines very easy to change,they have a wire quick connect c-clip,just pull it out pull off the line,push on the new one and put the c-clip back in,the ones Stinker have are way better ssbraided-lines,put them on and should get rid of future leaks,my stock ones started to seep around the crimped ends on the hose,power steering line did the same.
