Leaks can be pesky. Are your balance shafts eliminated? If so, I know a lot of people have issues with the balance shaft idler pulley hole leaking. Some rtv usually helps in that area

Wasn't from there, was from the crank seal

Btw. Tq. the crank bolt was a pita, until i getto fab a bar with a 1x1 square tubing. Now is fine torqued at 80

Next time just put the car on the ground, put it in gear and torque that crank bolt. This does NOT work for taking it off as you're turning CCW then and you risk turning the motor slightly CCW which isn't a good idea. If anybody thinks this is hard on the transmission just think about what 400ft lbs does compared to the 100+ you're doing to tighten that bolt.

Turning a motor CCW is a bad idea? I thought you were supposed to rotate the motor CCW when doing the timing belt.

Either way works. For anybody reading you can put it on ramps and do this if the car is too low.
