Engine oil looking a little red. Cause for concern?

[Natek]

I last changed me oil during the winter and probably put on less than 200 miles since but I went in anyway to do a change today. The oil is looking a little red. I don’t know if this is normal and I just never noticed because i usually go longer when the oil is much darker or does this indicate a coolant leak? No smoke or anything. This is Mobil1.

Assuming the color is off, I do not know what could be causing a red tint. The last time I cleaned the mst air filter and resprayed it with the red oil was well over a year ago. As the bmw coolant is yellowish green I don’t think that would do it.
