79' Scarab with twin 350s. the Port engine has had a leak all summer. Only does it over 3k RPM. While idling or cruising below that RPM it doesn't leak. Oil leak very near crank or main pulley. Pulley is slinging oil around the engine bay can see it in the floor of bilge and engine hatch. I pulled the harmonic balancer and replaced the main seal. I thought that would be it, but a brand new seal and I had the same problem this last weekend. Seems to have made no difference. When pulling the harmonic balancer there was a fair amount of oil behind the main bolt and sitting between the crank and the balancer. After running it, there is always a small pool of oil resting on the inside of the grooves of the main pulley. Any idea where this could be coming from?
