It probably is the seals leaking , but there could another problem. If it has new valves and guides, the clearance maybe the problem .001 to .003 clearance (normal). To much to start with your in trouble. Even with .001clearance without a seal, it will have very little oil rolling down the guilde when done right.That is common complaint if you using old valves or guides, nerualing the guides is short timer for guide life, thats where clearance problem useally accure. Yes you can change seals make sure your piston is at TDC when you do it! There is some seals with large shoulders that will help. Ray
