    If the motor has the original seal in it, it’s done its job and should be replaced. You can confirm if the seal is leaking or not by pouring a bit of oil or fuel mix over it and slowly crank the motor over. Any bubbles or disappearing oil means you have your work cut out.

    Here’s a short video of a leaky seal
