I too was under the impression it was a new car smell, but I was wrong. All you need to do is a visual check under the hood with the engine running. If the VCT seal is leaking you will see some liquid on the engine head and possibly see some oil gushing.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll definitely take a look for that.
