Default Balance Shaft seal failure?

Hi all,
Well the accord had been running sweet, until this morning. On my way to work I noticed the oil pressure gauge start diving.... pulled over and found an oil trail.

Got down to work and pulled a few bits off and found this seal had popped out? Anyone seen this before? Seems strange.



I guess I'm wanting to know why this seems to have just popped right out! Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Fixing it with more breathing, and seal retaining compound! Got a leak down test done and all was fine there. Just wanting on the cam cover to have big fittings weilded in.

Also sticking the manual in at the same time. (I had the bonnet open and thought, Why not?) Alloy flywheel and 5 puck Exedy are on order. Just got to get an engine mount and axle and it'll all fit in...

Then back on the dyno for more boost, hopfully before Dec 5th as that's track day and someone has to make a stand against all those bloody skylines!
