Is this normal.................

Ok so here is the situation, I just put in my new MPEM in a 94 XP I bought about a month ago. I bought it with a bad one so I never heard it run or crank.................I got everything together and went to crank it and it seemed the motor was siezed. I took the head off to see what ws going on and noticed the rings were just kind of rusted to the cylinder walls. I sprayed them with some deep creep and bumped the started until they freed up. Now that they are free when I rotate the motor it pulls up ALOT of what seems to be oil from the crank case..............is this normal??? Cause it seems awfully strange to me........

Im thinking now it is the rotary valve seal..................not happy

Sounds like a rotary seal is bad if the leak isn't to bad u can leave it alone once u clear out the built up oil from sitting a long time put if it's a fast leak it will need to be replaced
