Tore down the short block this afternoon. As far as I can tell, the one piece seal developed some kind of a kink in it on the side during installation that contributed to the leak. Maybe I didn't trim it enough or have it seated good enough and it compressed funny.
At first glance, the two piece seems to fit the radius reasonably well, but it's going to need to be trimmed quite a bit as around .025 is sticking out of the block and a little less on the cap. I could give this two piece a try since I've got it on hand, but I'm wondering if the graphite seal is the safer bet since I rarely ever hear about them leaking.
