You can order any of the seals individually from Mazda.

Mazdatrix has the part numbers on their website.

A cracked front iron if from extreme detonation. Fix that issue. :) A lot of times caused by triggering problems.

think the problem was over tightening the banjo fitting I spent 45 mins with mazdatrix last night lol didn't even think to ask him about the seals

agree w Aaron. probly detonation.

check tip of f rotor for shiny/contact w rotor housing, also collapsed CS springs.

generally the front dowel pin moves outward cracking the dowel pin well at the oil service port.

often from trigger or crossfire.
