Check if any diesel has contaminated the auxiliary drive belt.

 

If so, get the belt changed.

The hose on the top of the picture (connected to fuel filter housing) seem to be greasy, as if the leak coud come from here...

Otherwise, check that bolts on the fuel filter cover are correctly tightened.

A couple of years ago a work colleague with an Audi A5 that's got a similar engine and filter came to work after his car was serviced and found diesel was leaking as they'd fitted the filter incorrectly.  He called them out to work and they refitted the filter correctly and had to take the car back to clean the mess under the bonnet.
