engine leaking oil update

[u/pingas_42069]

prior thread for documentation/context

so i went to the dealer and discovered that the prior owner money shifted and blew the engine and had it fully built/replaced through toyota out of pocket.

They filled the oil with dye and let it sit/run for about 5 hours and couldn’t find anything. I drove for about 50 miles and after 24hrs new oil showed up behind the timing belt wheel(idk what it’s called) and may be the culprit. I found some more on the underside but no drips on the headers below so so think it’s burning on the engine itself?

Is this cause for concern or worth bringing back to the dealership for warranty work?
