Default Leaking oil 2008 Cummins

I have a brand new 2008 2500 Cummins Ram, less than around 3,500 miles on it, and I found an oil leak. It is not bad at all, there is no drip yet, it is just pooling up where it is leaking from on some plate just below my oil filter. It is not coming from the filter, but from the rear bottom corner of that plate. Is anybody else having this problem? I am taking it to the dealership tomorrow to get it fixed. (cant upload pic right now.)

Jimmy, with the signature pics that you are using, you probably scared the guy off . Do you really think he is gonna tell you where he lives?

if it is a plate next to the filter that is where the oil cooler is located.
