same thing happened to me a few weeks ago!! the problem with mine was that the air breather HOSE coming off the oil filler that connects under the air filter was kinked; therefore not letting the eng breathe! it had to breathe somewhere so it decided to come out from behind the crank pully as you described. hope this has helped out! let us all know!

I would say so. You don't want to glue it to the pulley.

i put the new pulley and seal on yesterday, ran the engine for a little while and noticed oil had stopped coming out from behind the pulley and now a little bit was finding its way up through the bolt and washer then being flung around and off the pulley. so i sealed it with some gasket maker stuff and let it cure overnight. i also sealed off the tube that was coming down from the oil filler that didnt go anywhere cause i had noticed a little bit of oil leaking from here too. checked the breather box connections and things and took it for a drive today for the first time in a while. checked the engine after the drive and no oil had leaked from the pulley. it is nice. thanks for all the help, i recommend the slip in sand seals to anyone who also has this problem.

sounds like some weird preassure happening to push oil out through the crank pulley bolt. well at least it's fixed
