Cam sensor O-Ring leak?

I brought my '06 in for an oil leak since it is under warranty.
The SA said the tech put a dye in the oil and found the Cam Sensor O-Rings were leaking.
They said they'd have the parts tomorrow and I can pick it up by the end of the day.

Anyone else heard of this or had this leak?

Thanks.

Yep, they have replaced those 0-Rings three times for me. I am at 99,400 miles. Next time I'll have to change them myself.

Got the truck back yesterday and it appears they've fixed it.
It took a while to get them to look at it. I was told the 4 diesel mechanics there were backed up...
Overall I'm just happy I got it taken care of under warranty.
