Hello David, thank you for your help. The oil is on the end of the crank shaft it is no oil next to the slip seal.I have a friend that is a tractor mechanic for the county but all they work on is ford tracters working on it.he has checked the seal for any damage after installing it and it is good ond there was no grooves in the crank,but after running it the oil was dripping out the wheep hole as before so he took it apart took off fly wheel and oil was on the end of the center of the crank. It looks like the flange ring is pressed onto the crank and oil is coming from the joint.I would think that the crank would be made from 1 pc. of steel.What do you think it's strange that the only oil was in the center of the crank.

Hello,
To the best of my knowledge all cranks are one piece. If you are sure that the oil is coming from the centre of the flywheel flange it suggests that there may be a crack or weakness in the journal. I have never heard of this problem and have to be honest and think it unlikely. If you have the tractor split at the moment something you might be able to try is to connect an air line to the point on the lhs of the block where the oil pressure gauge is fitted. If you can get 30 to 40 psi into the system that might be enough to show if the oil is coming from the crank itself. It will probably take a couple of minutes before the air will force the oil through. It's a long shot but just might work.
Keep us posted.

David P
