    Been there done that.
    Get an AC Delco seal and try again, use a pvc coupler or a big socket to press it in nice an easy.
    I polished my balancer snout on a lathe to get rid of the groove on the second try too.

    Last two were an AC delco from GM stealership. Cleaned all surfaces including the balancer shaft. Installed with a big socket so it seated good. Also put a repair sleeve on the balancer so it has no groves as I read that could be an issue. I will remove the breather that's no big deal. The puddle of oil in my driveway is....Need to get this fixed the GXP does not like the snow...need the GTP back up and running. LOL. Guess I will try again with another seal. It is just weird that I get no leaks for about a week then it pours out on start up. UGH>
