If you have new seals installed then by process of elimination I see only 2 possibilities. The seal(s) was/were damaged upon installation or there are seal grooves worn in the crank. The newer seals lessen the leakage but do not eliminate it. Did you notice a groove, hard to see when you replace them ?

i dont think i damaged it on installation...i pushed it in the seal "SEAT" as far as i could then i took a deep socket and softly tapped it all the way in..and for the grooves on the crankshaft that isnt possible seeing that i just put a crank in it and piston

At this point you are being over-critical perhaps? Go back to basics and adjust idle and /or cable slack? I don't see any reason for any air leaks at this point. Sounds like you did a good job on the repair. Go ride and enjoy!
