I've heard that if you score hole where that seal goes in or the shaft, you could have leaks there that are hard to fix. I also heard you could put a bushing in there if you score the hole and go with a smaller seal maybe. Is your seal bad or is the hole scored or the crank scored. Why don't you just do a t belt job and replace the seal? I guess the seal for the oil pump could be leaking. I just snugged mine up since it looked like it might have been leaking. I haven't seen any oil leaks since I changed the seals and snugged the oil pump bolts.  It's not too hard of a job.
