Refreshing this topic, does anyone have any replies they'd like to share on here, for Nina and any other novice 'mechanics'? Thanks

Could be just oil trapped from when your engine was moved about. You'll get a small amount out of it due to hot oil fumes condensing in the tube. Keep an eye on your oil level, if it looks like it is loosing oil I'd take it back and get them to look at it. If it isn't you probably have nothing to worry about.

Depends how much a significant amount is though.

After the seal was replaced, they might have refilled the engine with a bit too much oil, which is now venting out of the crankcase breather, should stop of it's own accord, keep your eye on it though Nina, just to make sure it does
