Oil leak after service and belt change

Had Disco 4 SDV6 seviced and belts done at a indie a few month ago, do they disturb any thing oily when the rear belt is changed? I have a oil leak at the rear of the engine and its running down from the top and down both sides of the bell housing, it's only a small one at the moment. It's not oil filter that all dry.

They shouldn't do as far as I'm aware apart from the oil filter if they were doing a full service as well as the belts but you've checked the filter.

If it's leaking down both sides of the bellhousing then it's definitely coming from the 'V'
It could be from the Oil cooler under the oil filter or hopefully something more simple like the oil pressure switch which happened to my mates D4, it didn't look like much of a leak at the switch but was coming down both sides of the bellhousing. It has a tapered thread so easy fix with thread tape or sealer.

I took a couple of pics.
