I have recently had Steeda pullies installed in my 97 GT. I have since noticed an oil leak that seems to be centered around from the crankshaft pully. Anyone have this experience, or know the cause, and how to correct it. The oil isn't exactly gushing, but there is a definite loss as there are drips on the ground, and oil on the crank pully and especially on the water pump pully below it...

My mechanic is normally really good, and specializes in performance mods, but I thought that this was a no-brainer install with the correct tools.... I took all the precautions with prepping him, and even supplied Joe Lynch's great instructions to compliment the also provided Steeda ones.
