Wich seal Did You use On the front of the pan? There is a thick one and a Thin One, If You used the Thin One then It is going to Leak

actually its the rear thats leaking, the front leaked but a lil RTV solved that one. i know the rear isnot the main seal because the flywheel is dry, and spot from the mainseal to the oilpan (small space) is also dry but oilpan gets soaked and the outside of th eflywheel, tranny pan gets wet aswell
i think its from lowering th epan slighly when slippin gth etiming cover back in. anyway i got a nice gasket from the dealer, 1 peice rubber and a mettle ring around each screw hole to prevent crushing th egasket
