Must be another oring around the shaft. Will check the dist bolts to make sure they are tight. It's possible I may have forgotten to tighten one down.
My leak condition is exactly the same as you describe for yours. I've always thought there must be some kind of seal on the distributor shaft. I just saw PDGIZWIZ post with the FSM drawings showing the second O Ring shaft seal. I have never seen that seal but I'm sure this is what is wrong with mine. I'll ask PDGIZWIZ for the part number or place to get an after market O Ring that fits this shaft.

Thanks for your help...
