Yes awning. No doesn't appear to be pulled away.

I don't have a ladder with me I'll climb up when I get home. Just curious if anyone else has had this happen.

I found with both my old Coleman popup and my Roo that you can occasionally get a drip coming through the seal where the awning attaches to the trailer. The fix was to take some tension off the awning. It seems that too much tension on the awning fabric may pull the attachment bracket away from the wall just enough to allow a slight leak.
