Any help on an oil leak around the oil filter I think.

I would, first, make sure the filter is tight and installed correctly. On a previous car, I had this issue and all it needed was some tightening.

You might want to take the car back to where you last had the oil changed (dealer or shop) and have them take a look at the filter and/or drain plug. Good luck.

Go to the stealer and complain of a leak. If under warranty this is easy.
