^^^ sounds like the issue. What size oil feed line and/or restrictor are you using?

Too many variables to narrow it down to seals just yet, but that's what it sounds like. Ebay kits usually come with a -4 AN feed line, which most of the time is way too big. (Requires a restricter) Every motor/setup is different & you should choose your plumbing accordingly. I personally like -3AN line with no restrictor. The line itself acts as a restrictor. This is on my LSvtec
