Default oil leak,behind stator

what up ,just installed a rivera primo 8mm (1 3/4 belt) enclosed primary on my 1988 stc to get rid of all the vibration and the oil leaks from the primary, well it got rid of the vibration it feels like i got a new bike the pro clutch that came with it feels great, it shifts better feels like a new trans, but now i got some oil from the crank which i would have not found unless i did the belt thing. all this time it was leaking in the primary oil, that's why i would wonder why my oil check would be low all the time but it did not leak any on the ground and did not smoke. so now what will it take to fix the leak behind the stator is it just a seal or what will it take to repair,,,,thanks,,,,my dixie reck

Change the seal and check your breathers are not blocked while you are at it.
