The guys pulled it apart today, and looks like it didn't spit the crank seal, it munched the oil pump instead, I've been told it's a common fault of the HKS cam belts, what they do is pull too hard against the oil pump and cause it to wear out the housing and dumo out the oil, he was saying he's seen it happen to quite a few evo's even a evo 9.
So it's gonna be a new ( second hand ) front case and oil pump and a genuine miti cam belt and it'll be back on the road
Just a word of advice to any running a HKS cam belt, you might want to think about replacing it or the same thing may happen to you
