Dumpy dizzy.

Ages ago, when converting to EDIS on my SD1 EFI, I bought a dumpy dizzy at a spares day somewhere. There's a fair bit of oil around it on the engine front. The body O ring was good. Could the way it was cut down allow it to leak oil? I've got a converted dizzy to provide a can signal waiting to go on, and that has the full length shaft, so better shaft bearings and the full length oil thread, but didn't intend fitting it until I change to MS3 and sequential everything.
To explain - I've got lots of oil leaks on this pretty high miles engine (about 200,000 miles) but it runs beautifully. So not quite sure if I'm chasing my tail due to excess crankcase pressure. But if you remove the oil filler cap, it doesn't puff at idle.
