Default Recently replaced valve seals leaking again

When i thought the valve seals were leaking on my GSR i replaced them myself with beck and arnley brand seals. They worked great. About a year later after a bottom end rebuild there is smoke on startup again.

Do you think it was the shitty seals?

Maybe a bad valve guide ruining the seals prematurely? IDK

What do you guys think ?

Found out that some engine builders around me refuse to use Felpro

Also heard that some of the new honda valve seals suck too
