1998 Ford Taurus 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I recently had my oil changed.I started noticing
something leaking on the passenger side of my car.
Took the car a Ford Dealer put a bottle dye in car.I am
suppose to drive the car 200 mile and go back and have
them use a black light to see that this could be. I just bought this and a am very upset that this is going to cost
me a lot of money. Do you have any idea what this could be.

Thank you

If the leak occured after the oil change, check the drain plug, and the filter, I have seen the old filter gasket stay in place, then a new filter be installed over it, then a leak develop, check for ANY sign of oil at the filter.
