Default Crank Sensor, o-ring?

I am chasing down another leak. I found that oil is coming out at the crank sensor. There is no detail in RAVE I can find soft and hard copy. I also looked online parts, but could not find one that looked the one on the front cover.

Is there an O-ring on the thing?

I should have pulled it and replaced it when resealed the front cover......

The crank sensor is at the flywheel and is not lubricated at all. Hell, it doesn't even actually go inside the engine.
