OIL LEAK?

Recent free health check uncovered an oil leak.
There was no mention of this at MOT & Service in January, only 1600 miles ago.
Perhaps someone can help by giving their thoughts on it? There is nothing on the car port floor and no indications.
However after the service I did notice a worsening in fuel consumption but this may not relate.
Other than the rear diff oil leak fixed 2 years ago the car has been fine.
It is about 1 minute in.

I had a similar problem, an oil leaked picked up on my MOT, but never any oil on the ground and the oil level did not appear to drop.

Car has now been with the dealer 2.5 weeks, the leak was identified around the cam cover, but the parts to repair were on back order. ------------------------------------------------------------------

I had this it was the oil filter housing it sits in the V of the engine the seal had gone, just order new filter a new seal will come with it and change it 10mins work, but remember to soak up the oil sitting in the V.
