Well, I have been running the new fuel since July in
my 1.9na, and my pump has also started to seep, not
drip, just seep at the distributor plate big O ring.
The pump was re-sealed about 5,000 miles ago.  I have
put about 3K miles on the van since finishing the
resto.
//
If its been recently resealed, it has the Viton seals, which should be OK
with the skinny fuel.
The next thing I'd check for is restrictions in the return line back to the
tank.
Blockages there will increase the internal pressure of the pump, and the
fuel will find the path of least resistance.
