Reman 22r Engine front seal leak. PLEASE HELP.

85 Toyota 22r engine 600miles on new engine
Well I just swapped my engine everything went smoothly except for a oil leak. It’s coming from the front seal.[/FONT][/COLOR]
Things I have tried to do to fix leak
Replaced seal[/FONT][/COLOR]
Replaced seal with a OEM Toyota seal
Put a Sleeve saver[/FONT][/COLOR]
Put a New Harmonic Balancer [/FONT][/COLOR]
Put some RTV around the outside of the Front seal
The best result was Timkem seal with a little RTVOnly lasted a while was 4wheeling for a couple of hours and leak is back.I have become a pro at doing a front seal job. Damn if anyone can please help. And yes I’m for sure where the leak is coming from.
PLease help if you have had this happen to you or know how to fix it. Thanks.

He was having the same problem and it looks like he ended up replacing the oil pump.

Thanks Supernerd. I think I got it. I hope!!! Replaced Oil Pump used a TimKen Seal and some RTV. I believe the Old/New Oil Pump was creating to much pressure. But not sure. Thanks for the help.
