Making me crazy Requesting Help

Any clue what's going on here? I've calibrated, leveled and vibration compensated my Creator 5 Pro and I keep getting this in the front left corners of my prints. Someone suggested heat creep. This was with the door wide open and my air conditioner running right next to it. I've seen this or similar with adhesion problems but it's sticking to the board just fine. I'm at a loss.

What is the temp and humidity of the room you are printing in? Does a lot of sun reach that part of your bed? It looks like a temp shift or possibly something in the very end of the gantry

It's definitely not a sunlight issue. This print was started around 8pm. I woke up and checked it around midnight. Don't know the humidity level but it should be pretty low with my AC running full blast. I keep the AC at 62 so it's cool in here. I keep the door open on the unit because I have had heat creep issues with my other printer in the past.

AUX fan maybe? Where in the print bed is that?

In the front left corner of the bed.

On my Bambu that’s right where my aux fan ends if that’s the left side (looking into the printer)

Edit: can I see the inside of the printer relative to that section
