Oil leak bottom cover.

So today I went out and noticed a small puddle on the passenger side of my car. Jacked it up and found what looks to be a drip coming from the lower cover. The timing belt looks dry so that usually would mean its not the cam seals. Its a slow drip but im sure with higher oil pressure it picks up. I just had the timing belt done 1k-1500 miles ago. Im wondering if the tensioner bolts could have came loose or any other ideas. Any input is appreciated.

one of the tensioner bolts goes through to an oil passage
