Leaking crank seal

I have a 2008 Dixie Chopper with a GTV990 engine that one day just started leaking quite a lot of oil from crank seal on bottom side where pulley is attached. I replaced seal twice and each time placed it at a different level in case there was wear on the shaft but still leaks. Just wondering if anyone has had same issue and if there is a fix?
 
Haven't seen it on that engine but have seen issues with the bottom bearing on the Briggs twin OHV inteks wearing funny allowing oil to leak when the crankshaft is shifted to the side.
 
Thanks. The sump comes with a sleeve instead of roller bearing and if I'm reading right, it's all one unit. I'm wondering if the sleeve wallows out, would that cause leak at seal?
