oil leak after timing belt replacement- coincidence? 850

I recently had the timing and auxilary belts changed on my 95' 850 wagon. Within a couple of days of getting it back from my mechanic I noticed a small leak (not much, an eighth of a quart after 1 week, not clear where it comes from, it just shows up on the driveway under the oil pan each morning) and a certain santorum-like frothiness in the oil. Are there seals that my mechanic might have disturbed or not replaced correctly? I'm about to pose this question to the mechanic that did the work but wanted to check in here first.

Thanks
