Default Leaking on or by oil pan????

hello everybody,

I have got this oil leak on my oil pan. It's not to the point where you can actually see it on the floor but the pan is wet of oil. I noticed it when i did my first oil change at 1k miles. Silly me knowing that the truck was brand new, I thought that it could've been something from the factory. So i went on my business until 7k miles later changed the oil again and there it was again. Now it's at 13k miles and i finally went to local dealer and had them check it. I ended up paying 30 dollars for a oil pan wash. Dealer told me that it must've been a sloppy oil change from the previous oil change, and who ever did it must've spilled some oil all over it like by the skid plate and got blown back by driving. So i didn't want to get into an argument with the service personnel, and told him that i'll give it another 1500 miles and i will take it back to the dealer. I did tell him about the oil during the 1k service i did myself. Yes i do take the skid plate off so i could get access to the oil filter

Any of you guys have the same issue, and did you find out what it was?

Any help would be greatly appreciated......

I would be very surprised if the oil pan was actually leaking. How does the drain plug gasket look? Also, it could have been a slight leak at the oil filter (if you don't seat the o-ring properly, if could leak). Keep you eye on it and repost later
