It might be worth investigating further because that's not very old for it to go. It could be caused by a bad PCV( it's a pressure release valve that prevents excess gas buildup in the crank case which can force oil pass the seal). That's a cheap fix, and replacing the seal without checking that would just make it happen again.
Thanks that was helpful... I'll at least have something to talk about with the independent auto mechanic. If I have to drop $2K on the car, I would much rather delay it as much as I can. But, 2020 Honda Odyssey isn't that old.
