Front crankshaft seal # 90080-31049 is under $10 and is easy to replace (for me).
Remove passenser side front wheel and the splash guard behind it. Remove serpentine belt, remove crankshaft pulley bolt, remove crankshaft pulley, pry out seal, install new seal, install crankshaft pulley and bolt... I managed to do it all without an impact wrench, by jamming the pulley with an old serpentine belt wrapped around it and to the suspension, which also allowed me to tighten crankshaft bolt to 102 ft·lbf with a torque wrench as required.
