That little red stripe is most definitely a light leak of some form. The
redness of the stripe would make me think that it is coming through the BACK of
the film, so I would suspect a crack in the film back.  Is this a Databack?
Otherwise, I would pick on the foam insulation at the hinge of the back.  Is it
fully intact?  Is it even there?  My newish OM-4's insulation is pretty much
gone at the hinge location and I've gotten a few similar images.

Given the thinness of the line, and the dimness, chances are the flaw is quite
small.
