So I'm on the home stretch of my 6 bolt rebuild, and everything has gone fairly smooth (knock on wood). But today I was putting on some of the timing components, when I spotted a possible issue. While cleaning the idler pulley I noticed that it has puked some grease out the back seal. The pulley seems to be in fine shape though, spins very smooth, no roughness. Also I should state I just had replaced all timing components a year ago, with only 3k miles on them. So I was planning on putting all of it back in rotation(get it, ). But seriously, is this normal, or am I better off replacing it again? Also both pulleys are OEM, and my belt is a gates that I'm reusing. Thanks.
