Can still be the crank seal if it got a slight nick in it when fitting over the crank end.

Are oil pump gaskets common to breaking then?
Mine pisses oil out of somewhere around the bottom pully area of my engine :lol:
Im thinking its the oil pump gasket, but its too big of a job to do with the engine still in the car.

Be careful with silicone comound on sump gaskets because it can fook your engine if any clogs up the pickup filter
