Default Just Got My Car Back, Now This

just had the timing belt,thermostat,and water pump changed and also had the oil cooler gasket replaced. The car was winterized as well, had three quarts of transmission fluid added. I can feel the difference in the drive with the changes but now i have a pretty bad oil leak, my car never leaked oil unto the ground before it went into the shop , now im getting a leak on the passenger side about the diameter of a coke can. When i lift up the hood i can see the oil mainley is at the front of the car on the skid plate. Most definitely im taking the car back but what could this be?

Default probably the cam tensioner seal or the valve cover gasket

if they installed the gaskets without sealant in the corners they are likely to leak.

Check the PCV system, especially if it's really cold near you.
