If the installer was not meticulous with the new RMS depth ,it may leak. We've covered the precise cause/remedy in previous Posts.
If it deteriorates it may contaminate the clutch .We could get into that but you did not supply details of your car
Are you sure it is engine oil and not hydraulic fluid or gearbox oil?
