New iPhone 14 - “Yellow Dirt” in charging port

I bought my new iPhone 14 last Saturday. On Sunday, I discovered “Yellow dirt” in my phone charging port. I tried cautiously using a toothpick to remove it but it won’t go away (looks dry and hard to remove). The charging port works perfectly fine. Should I be worried about this? Anyone knows what it is? (This “dirt” messes with my OCD). I didn’t put the phone in dirty pockets or places so the “dirt” must been there since the phone was still packaged in its box. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks!

Since you just bought it I'd return it to the place you purchased it from and have it inspected.
