Rotrex leaking at front seal
 
A very slow leak, Rotrex Tech Support said it is caused buy cooler/reservoir above the supercharger. Any one else with a slow leak out of the seals?

Only leaks when it sits. Running, the pump keeps the level in the charger below the oil seals. Stopped, gravity feed the charger and over fills the sump.

What???? that sounds like BS to me. Isn't the compressor like the lowest point of all the old GTM SC kits.. I've had mine in for going on 5 years now and haven't seen that issue.

"The finished oil system is shown above with oil flow direction as
indicated by the arrows. Oil flows from the oil canister through the
filter into the compressor oil inlet. The compressor oil outlet routes
through the cooler before entering the oil canister at the top.
To prevent oil leaks it is of utmost importance that the oil cooler, oil
filter and the oil canister with its cap are placed below or level with
the supercharger shaft."
