I'd take it back to the service facility. A drip is different from a major leak. Sounds like the oil drain plug hole or the oil filter adapter threads are stripped. It can be repaired. HTH. -Jim

Imo...you need a second opinion on this oil leak. Can you perhaps take a photo of the oil leak area and post it.?
