Oil is leaking out my opti seal. I've replaced the seal 3 times in the past 3 weeks. Any ideas? He motor had been rebuilt from top to bottom with a hotcam installed. Been leaking oil out of this seal since the first fire up on the rebuilt motor 3 weeks ago. I also put in a reman delco opti on the last seal install and it's still leaking. I put dye in the oil so what you see is under uv light. And the water pump seal isn't leaking. I have attached a pic of that seal too.

I am out of options. I've searched several forums and the net for the past 3 weeks and tried different options and I'm still having the issue

 

Cam walk issue maybe? Retainer may be worn

 

You would think that the machine shop would have caught that with excessive amount of camshaft play correct? Well I would hope anyways

 

something aint lining up right.

 

Any ideas on what to check?

 

something most likely got installed wrong or wrong part. cam, bearing, retainer. not using 93-94 opti are you,,, i would be talking to the shop for sure.
