Default Leaking Paxton front seal

Anyone know a vendor where I can get a seal kit from? I called Paxton and they want me to send the head unit in for a rebuild. The seal only seems to leak slightly when coming out of boost. Its a Paxton NOVI 1500.

Is your crankcase vented properly? I had a similar issue with a paxton centrifugal s/c that seemed to be caused by crankcase pressurization during boost. They wanted me to do the same thing so they could charge for a rebuild.
