Gotcha, the flywheel and everything looks good. I did have an issue with the woodruff key shearing when I first got the bike due to the flywheel not being properly torqued but I replaced the key, luckily the ktm key is the same dimensions because the gas gas one was not available at the time.
When I pulled the jug the base gasket was damp and torn at the rear. After the rebuild the rear was where the leak was coming from until I reassembled with some sealant.
