If it's just a weep then it's extremely unlikely that you'd lose enough transmission fluid such that it could compromise the gearbox.

If BMW won't replace the sump you could ask them, as a gesture of goodwill, to check the transmission fluid level and top it up if necessary. Then just keep an eye on things. If the weep develops into a drip you'll most likely start to notice spotting on your drive (or parking place if you park on the road).

I'd still push BMW for a FOC replacement of the sump though. That's not normal for a young car with low miles.
