Permanent Fix to the RMS Leak?

Has anyone that had the leak fixed recently using these latest parts put enough miles on their cars to see if this is finally a permanent fix? I'd like to not revisit this leak again, obviously.

If you don't mind me asking Blue200S, how much did the dealer want for this fix.

I was alarmed by what might have been an RMS leak discovered during and oil change, but after the oil change, I have not noticed any new oil drips (white plastic taped to floor under the car, checked daily...)

Ed Carroll in Ft Collins, CO. They charge about $1200 but my car's in the last month of the certified used car warranty so I didn't have to pay for it.
