Check to see if the harmonic balancer isn't cracked (the pulley is part of it) - mine was! My guess is this happens when someone along the way gets too "happy" with the tensioner and puts way too much side load on the balancer. If it's cracked, replace it quick as it can mess up the front seal big time. I'll see if I can't take a digital picture of mine (it's sitting around somewhere in the garage) and post it here.
