End float is the movement of the crank in the block from front of engine to gearbox, there is an allowed slight movement.
Check the end of the crank where it goes through the seal. It could have a groove worn into it. This will let oil pass if it is badly worn.

That will make no difference after a short time.
It would be ideal to get into its proper position. Peut-être avec une chasse groupé ? Légèrement...
If the seal is damaged fit a new one.
Seals against the pulley assembly, not the crankshaft.
If there is a groove or other wear on the pulley assembly where the seal seals you have a number of choices.
1. Fit a new pulley - ETC7339 - which are very expensive. Used ones may have the same issue

2. Take yours to an engineering firm & have it built up & reground.
3. Fit a speedisleeve to cover the damaged area. I've used these for the same issue on my 3.5EFi. Take the pulley off, measure for the appropriate sleeve, fit the sleeve to cover the damage, remove the fitting flange on the sleeve & refit the pulley to the crankshaft.

ETA. If you use a speedisleeve you will need an appropriately sized piece of tube to seat it to the required depth as the fitting tool that comes with the sleeve isn't long enough.

Use the wooden block to seat flush.
Make a washer out of 1.5mm steel to fit on the outer part of the seal.
Place on the seal & use the block of wood to further seat the seal.
Remove the block of wood & the washer & it should be OK.
