I was told two, but it took three.

I had a subsequent problem, with an engine warning light caused by secondary air pump (that warms the cats up) being out of range. I suspect it was a lose hose, easily rectified

The oil leak is a known fault. Niche Technologies used to have a good write up, but their website has gone

Update: Car was picked up on the 12th by OPC Edinburgh (170 miles from home), a new Cayenne e-hybrid dropped off. Suspected Timing Chain Cover oil leak sorted after engine / gearbox out. Car returned yesterday and loan car returned. Great service by them and kept me updated regularly once the car was taken into the workshop. All under warranty 😊.
