Oil leaks after a piston replacement

Oil leaks after a piston replacement
I went in to get my oil changed and the shop noticed leaks from the upper and lower pans as well as the oil pressure switch.
At 31K miles, I had the piston and piston rings replaced. I'm at 43K miles now, 18 months later and out of warranty.
Looking for thoughts and advice on how to approach this with the Audi deal and AoA. I'm being told this is a huge job to fix. Since my engine was basically rebuilt 13K miles ago I'm thinking I shouldn't be having these problems unless the repairs were substandard.
Thanks.

Coolant level seems stable. I did get a engine warning light and EPC light come on after starting the car (car wouldn't blow A/C, went away after turning car off/on again). Anyway, that's what made me get it into the dealer to deal with the issues ASAP as opposed to waiting to see if the coolant leak got worse.
