Well, there definitely IS something wrong if it's leaking oil. When you say "place that changed the oil"... are we talking about a quick lube shop or a Toyota dealer? The filter on the 5.7L engine is a cartridge style and many places may not know how to properly put them on. Even some Toyota service centers can't get it right from what I've read.
There is also a TSB out for very early '07 models that has to do with the dipstick tube leaking at the base. I don't recall the details, but it only affected models built up to about Feb '07 from what I recall. Still, it might be worth a look.
I'd recommend taking it to a Toyota dealer or to a different Toyota dealer if you've already been to one.
