Default Dipstick leak!

Ok last time i took my car to change the oil they tolf me the dipstick is leaking. I looked at it and saw it was leaking but there is no marks under the car tho, which means is not that bad. Anyways what could this be and how serious...maybe just a gasket? And how complicated is it to fix?

Yeah they told me it would be a good idea to change the transmission oil too, but not untill i fix the dipstick, cuz i guess it would have to be drained when fixing it, changing the gasket or whatever!
