Thank you all guys for your encouragement and kind words. I am indeed happy with my bike. And especially thankful that I didn't wait for the 2020 version because look at the headlight of that thing.
Anyways, I saw this leak one morning and was once again in a cycle of regret that I've bought a used bike.
I went to the service center with my mind fixed that I would demand for an engine replacement. The mechanic looked at the leak and then found out that the nut just above the leak was loose. Don't know why but it was. He tightened it and all the other head nuts and told me that it was just a leak from the bolt. They drained and poured in new TVS branded engine oil which was 730rs for 1.2 liter bottle and put in a new filter.
I also found out that my fuel gauge was wonky and it would show 2 bars even though it goes into reserve. I showed it to them and they assured me that they would get a replacement part soon. Because of my generous tipping to them during the purchase, they treated me very well. The mechanic let me roam around and see other bikes in service. They even waxed my bike for free as part of service. My bike work was also done on priority. Let's see how long this preferential treatment lasts for.
A pic of my bike just after service, in a field. Look at the reflection on the tank. Helmet placed on tank. Matches the look of the bike.
A pic of the oil cooler. Look at the gold coloured exhaust pipe.
A pic of my gold rear calliper. It is also coloured gold.

I can notice that the engine is much smoother after first service. I think the factory pours in thin oil to let the engine wear out into a nice rhythm. After the first service, the low end response is much smoother. The engine no longer wants to jump out of the cradle when you are in the wrong RPM. I still feel that 4th and 5th gear are unnecessary for city riding. They help out only on highway or 4th might be used for those clear stretches of city roads. But at the same time, the urgency of the engine is also tamed to some extent. The engine does not feel so jumpy at higher revvs. Maybe it is the placebo effect because of lack of vibrations after oil change or maybe the thicker oil made the engine tamer. I don't know but that's how it is now.
One problem with first service was that they sprayed wax on the front disc as well and the stopping power has gone down drastically. Need to buy a brake cleaner ASAP.
The oil leak that I showed you earlier also disappeared, hopefully for good. The head cover bolts also were tightened by 1/4 rotation. Don't know why they were loose in the first place.
I also bought this apache bike keychain which I thought would be super cool but it turned out to be very flimsy rubber. So, I have this nylon keychain instead.
Signing off with a pic of my bike just after the new year wash. Happy new year guys!!!
