2009 GL320 Oil leak... anyone else?

So this weekend I notice an oil leak under the car. I take off the plastic underneath and its fairly wet with oil and it looks like oil splashed around a bit and was all over the underside of the torque converter.

Look like it dripped down from above, slightly on the drivers side. I can't see any further up. Looking from the top down I can't see any oil either.

Any one know of any common problems?

Car is going to the dealership tomorrow. This will be my first visit for repairs to an MB dealership... I'm sure I'm in for a rude awakening...

Oil Leak

Experienced a similar problem w/ mine at about 42K miles - problem was the gasket between the vacuum pump and engine - was repaired under warranty.

So it was a seal between the turbo and engine... Nothing too horrible.
