Well I looked closer at it today and it is a new plant forming out of the stem. I felt further down the stem to see if another leaf would emerge from the base. I am not sure yet if it will or not push out a new leaf from the base. The odd leaf coming out of the stem has sense pushed out a new leaf from itself. I am guessing this is much like a runner.
Jan good to hear from you hope all is well. I hope this mutation or what ever it maybe is stable enough to keep around. It would be interesting to see what a plant full of these would look like.
Shadow I think I have seen what you are talking about which is usually a leaf forming at the upper portion of the petiole. This looks similar other than it is just popping out of the petioles their is not slice down the petiole were it is forming like a normal leaf. On this a odd knot forms and a new plant starts to grow out of it.
Here is another photo of the plant.
