Oil Seal on 86 SEi Pulse Generator

After getting the water pump, pulse generator, timing belt, fuel pump and syncing the TB, I now have a oil leak behind the PG at the seal. Reading some old posts the seal is "very easily damaged" I do remember when I replaced the PG the PG housing pulled away from the shaft (MY FAULT!!) and I pushed it back in. What else would you do??

All was good last week when I got things lined out but after a few hundred miles I came home and had oil all on my pant leg and shoe and down the side of the bike. Dripping oil at 70mph!

But after cleaning all around the PG housing and engine cover I see it leaking at the bottom or side where the seal is.

The oil leaks when it's on the center stand but very little if any on the kickstand

QUESTION #1 IS...is there a seal that could be locally found without ordering one and taking all week from Honda. Honda partsfinder show the cost $5.99 so that's not a issue just if there is a known replacement that can be bought and save me days of waiting.

QUESTION #2 I'm going out on a limb and guess if I leave the bike on the center stand and replace the seal I'll have some oil draining issue but can I put it on the kickstand and get by without draining the oil

Thanks for all the help

John

#1, the oil seal is a 22x35x7, go to or call a parts store and ask if they have a seal that size.
#2, there should be very little oil there unless you have it severely over filled.

The part # at a Honda car dealer is 91216-PA0-003, the computer is not going to recognize J1160-22824.

Just for curiosity I went and checked and it is the same part # for the bike and the car, that is really un Honda who will use a different # for the same part for 2 different cars.
