Since you haven't told us exactly where ... I'm guessing you mean the upper left of this example? Do you have a smudge on the lens or the filter or the extender? Do you have a hair inside the camera body (or lens), possibly behind the mirror on the sensor in the body? I spent 6-months trying to figure out a random hair once, before I learned how to lock-up the sensor, and there it was, to be easily removed with tweezers.
Yes, that's where it is. The yellow mark. That I know of none of the things you mentioned apply here. And as I mentioned this does not happen on every photo. Almost looks like a sun ray, light beam or whatever.
