Bad Oil Leak after changing Valve Pan Gasket
No the oil light was not on. Just had this bad leak and smells like its over heating since the gasket repair. Using a lot of coolant and oil since repair a few weeks ago...I complained and some part was tightened says it was not tight and that oil should stop. It did not. I kept a close eye on the performance of the car and reduced my usage of it. This the fourth time bringing it back but the first time they really kept it and went back over it.

What part did they admit forgetting to tighten?
Did you show them how RTV needed to go on the valley pan gasket end seals?
If your rear main seal really is the problem it is going to be expensive to fix. I for sure would not let that shop do the work. If they can not handle a simple valley pan gasket then the rear main seal is out of the question.
You really should try and get your money back on the labor at least since they didn't fix a freaking thing.

And find a reputable independent Land Rover Specialty... ONLY shop.
Not a foreign or import car shop... Not your sisters boyfriend...
Not a Dealer either.
If you specify what area of the country you are in, maybe someone here can point you in a better direction.
A few minutes with your favorite search engine should help you narrow down a proper shop. Do your research, read reviews, go see what their shop really looks like in person and talk to a few different places and ask lots of questions. Take a look at what kind of vehicles are around and their general condition.
