I know this has been suggested but I believe some of the seal housings don't have the required groove to allow oil to drain back into the sump and the suppliers assume you will file this in yourself.
I bought mine from "Austin7Ulster" and it had the required groove already machined although only at one position which obviously needs to be at the bottom.
My engine had always leaked from the original scroll type seal and the modern lip seal together with a speedi sleeve on the flywheel boss virtually eliminated any leakage.
