glide 2008

Have a 2008 Elec Glide Ultra Classic the bike started using oil the summer. Took several trips and had to add oil to engine after 450 miles or so, not leaking or burning, oil then started leaking out of the wire harness case plug . pull primary cover, and 5 qt of oil ran out before getting down to correct level. Its mostly a stock glide except for I had a after market oil cooler installed. engine oil pressure good about 35 lbs at highway speed and about 10psi at stop lights after it get warmed up. The bike has 18 K for mileage. Do get a little blow-by in the air filter after long trips.
I have went thru the factory manual, just cant find another spot there that engine oil could be coming thru. anybody have any idea how the engine oil gets in the primary? Harley Dealer wants to replace the oil seal does it need to be replace after only 18,000 miles?
