Mk1 punto was leaving puddles of oil on the road. A local garage fixed it charging approx £240 for a new sump, some other bits ive forgotten, oil and oil filter change and of course labour.

It stopped leaking oil like before but now it still leaves a drop or two on the road.

What should i do? Thanks

Rocker cover gasket?
 
Heres a list of everything they did if it helps.

Engine sump
Oil filter
Oil
Gasket sealant
Cam seal and o ring
timing belt kit (he said oil had got on the old one or something like that)
clips
labour
 
the drops land on the road under the oil filter?


I dont know where that is as i havent looked at that just quickly at where it had landed. When the car was leaking alot of oil before it was fixed it seem to fall toward the drivers side of the engine bay. Now the few oil drips seem to be nearer the passengers side of the engine bay.
 
that may be from the coil pack o'ring. Clean the engine so it has no oil on it than you'll the leaking point after a few days. Take a picture and upload it here.
