They also said the car is in excellent shape overall, and if any leaks should pop up later they warranty their work.
Happy that it was not a major deal, but still a bit skeptical.

I am glad you sorted it out that easy! Did they change the Oil Filter Rubber or oil cap rubber? Usually you do not change the oil cap one. And make sure that your oil filter tighten up 45NM torque not 25NM like it is used to!
