Have you cleaned the area yet? if not do so then chech it after frequently (maybe after every drive, short or long).

the 60 series only had that problem.
The Paj is different.
I would clean the area with a good degreaser untill there is no more oil or muck in the area, and go for a short drive and see if and where the leak is, if it is only a very small leak I would not worry about it for now, but just plan to do it in the not too distant future, ie next service.
