I installed my oil seal flush with the back of the case as you show in your original build photos. I don't think you can install it any deeper without disfiguring the seal. I also ensured my oil return holes were open. These holes allow any oil that makes it past the bearing to drip back into the case versus blowing out the rear seal.
You didn't have any leaks from the rear seal in the original installation did you?

I hope you are able to get back in the air soon! I have added checking the trigger shaft for looseness each time I take off the cowling to my maintenance checklist.
Thanks,
Jake
