From the description, a rear main seal leak would cause (uh, "wicked") more oil than the droplets I described. Typically I do not fill up the oil after the oil change, since the amount of oil is adequate for the next 3,000 or so miles. I do use dino oil.

I do not think it is a rear main seal (odds on that would be too many items going wrong too quickly). I will get it checked by the pros.

What about the turbo line oil leak-- how can that be corrected?
