Correct oil level 2016 Honda Accord V6

Hi all,

Just wanting a second set of eyes on my first ever oil change following yt videos.

The oil looks between the two lines on the dipstick but I see glistening higher up and some orange on the "RCA" text so not sure what to make of it.

I've turned the car on for a few minutes and let it idle - first start was a few seconds of oil pressure light which went away and no other lights. No visible leaks on the floor either.

Then checked the oil on flat ground (see pics of both sides below). Second and third starts to bring car from driveway into garage had no issues.

Let me know if I'm overthinking it. Thank you!
