Hi ___?___,

Did you find the reason the seal was being pressed out?

This is generally due to increased crankcase pressure caused by a
clogged EGR system. You can use the search engine to find out
about "The glove test" to check this yourself.

You should be using only full synthetic motor oil that is less
prone to clogging up the EGR and cylinder head oil passages.

Bill
