    If the furnace has just been started there may not be enough condensate built up in the furnace condensate trap to be effective. Pour some water into the trap and it should stop. the Manufacturers recommend this when we start up a furnace. Possible the trap has a crack in it that allows the water to seep out and again cause an ineffective trap for the condensate . The combustion vent blower pulls a negative pressure on the trap so there is little chance of flue gasses excaping. It can throw off the gas air mix to the burners however.

    I do energy audits as part of a state sponsered program that offers low cost financing. There has been little interest from the public in general but it is growing slowly. I primarily use it in my main business as a HVAC Contractor to find Duct & Air Loss in the building. Coupled with the Wright J Load calcs we use on new installations we can diagnose and give the customers a phased approach to making their home more affordable and comfortable

    It is most likely an oil stain from the A/C. Oil will blow out with the refrigerant (usually high side) when the tech either cut the lines when the old A/C was changed out or the had a service hose break. Any large loss of refrigerant will cause this. Try spaying a test spot with a degreaser or soap to see if it will come off.
