The red leaf margins are an identifying trait of Creeping Mistletoe

Yes I was thinking that but growing on a she-oak would be a bit odd for that species

Yeah not common, but not impossible. They're commonly on Eucalypts, but known to occur on about 100 different host species in 8 families, including a lot of exotics
