Default oil leak

Alright so i had an oil leak on my maxima. Found out it was the front main seal (aka) secondary timing seal. Otherwise the neat little seal that sits behind the pulley. I got the part and replaced it now it leaks even worse then before. I talked to some people and they said that it might be because i didn't put in a speedy sleave. I was wondering if this would make a difference or if maybe there is something wrong with my pulley. Give me some ideas

The seal sits on engine, seals on cranck surface. Pulley doesnt touch.

You were given wrong seal or the seal was ripped/bent during installation. Been there... luckily happiness doesnt depend on what happens.
