Default Rear main seal leak

Noticed my rear main seal is leaking. Anyone else? How long for the dealer to fix?

I was convinced my rear main seal was leaking. Close investigation revealed it was blowing back from the timing chain cover. It was one of the porous castings. They replaced it under warranty.

Anyway, look closely for signs of migration from some other source.
