There is no seal as such on the front or rear bearings, so leaking out
of the bearings indicates something like low compression (ie, fuel blowby
past the piston).

It can also mean something like excessively high fuel/crankcase pressure
but that's rarely the case.

Yes, if it was caused by p/s wear.
