Well, this is a stupid design. The crank should seal against the damned seal, or the seal should go in from the front and be locked in with a retainer.
Anyways, I have a small spray/leak. Probably will be less than 1/2 quart a month (I am hoping), but it will be messy. There is no drip at rest. It is just that I don't relish the part about pulling off the front of the gear case in front of the engine to replace a 20 cent seal.
I have no steel gears, but I am using a sanden compressor which should be much easier on the system. I have a spare engine in case I am wrong.
Best,
C
