Default Oil Leak

Took car to shop for trans fluid change. They found oil leak. He wasn't sure if it's the pan gasket or rear main seal.
Anyone have similar problem? He said 850's are known for rear main seal leaks. Said it would be about $500 job.

Could be the rear main seal.

Also make sure the turbo return line o-ring isn't leaking.
