this can also happen sometimes if you over prime and flood the engine on start up.
yap...i suspect that too as when i change the O-ring... seems dry inside the area. Inwhich, if its leak from the high end needle O-ring, it should be bit oily once you took off the O-ring. My 2cents worth....
but again, I had change the front Bearing but not the centre bearing, is it the cause of it to leak ? But again, if it too rich , the excess oil should more or less came out from the exshast pipe instead, isn't it ?
Damn.... make me keep thinking the cause of it even in bed-time...
