Joe, did you make sure that the vent on the top of the transmission is
not plugged?  If it is then pressure could be building up and making the
seal leak and no matter what you do it will continue to do so.  The
other thing it could be is a bad bearing allowing axle flange to go
slightly eccentric.  Check the flange for play when messing with the
seal again.

Just some ideas.
