Sorry, I forgot to add the most important thing to look for. You should check the oil pressure relief pistons in the engine case. Depending on the year you may have 1 or 2. If one of these is stuch, your oil pressure might be too high. This can cause various problems, I suppose seal problems might be one of these.
