Yep and hopefully just replacing the seal will fix it. I have a problem with mine where it has been off a few times and had a new seal/been reseated and it still leaks a little

When you have the pump off,you need to make sure the rear cover is tight on the oil pump - the screws can work loose resulting in a Drop in oil pressure and can possibly cause damage to the bottom end if left.
