Default What else could appear to be a rear main seal leak?

I have a 2001 allroad 6spd. with 18500 miles, yes 18500. Rear main seal was diagnosed to be leaking and fixed at Audi dealership 2 weeks ago. Got the car home and could smell fresh oil when I turned the car off, fresh oil was collecting at bottom of flywheel again and dripping, Audi FIXED it AGAIN last week, drove the car for 2 days and there is fresh oil forming again under the flywheel dripping on ground after the seal has been replaced twice,WTF. I can smell oil whenever I turn the car off, could a leak happen somewhere else that could mimic a rear main seal leak. Any help is much appreciated, the dealership stands behind their work but they are being difficult the third time around.

Thanks
