Any oil lost by the service tech should have long gone after 250 miles so could be a niggling leak on the r/cover.
Check air box pipe from the r/cover, oil filter housing etc, just might be something disturbed during Insp 1.

Cheers Ben, will give it another few cold starts this week and if still present, I'll drop it back to the garage for a look over.

There's no oil on the floor and dash reading is stable.
