I have over 10 gallons on my Hyper 8 and about 4 on my 8.5 and never had a problem with leaking on any of my diffs. I do replace the seals about every 5th time I go into them. Are you sure it is the o-ring under the crown gear ro the ones on the out put shafts?

I have so much RC stuff I am going to sell my Hyper 8 pro as a roller with some NICE up grades.
It is the orange o-ring (in the center diff 6 bevel gears) that stays visible after you screw everything up (not laterally )

Whats a good right height front and back for hyper? I've mine set at: front= 28mm and rear=36mm
What weight do you run in your diffs?
Like I said never had a problem with mine leaking and I use to change my diff oil after every two weekends of racing. A lot of variables in set ups. As far as ride height I ran mine where the A arms where not quite horizontal pointing down a little around 33mm give or take. Diff oil would vary on track conditions but a good start is front 5k, center 7k and rear 2k or that is what I used as a base line.
