283 rear seal leaks on new build

Just finished a complete rebuild on a 1958-283, on break in had major oil leak out rear of block. Used "Best Gasket #3711" in place of rope gasket. Are there any other oil plugs on this year of block that could have blown out? Installed a high volume oil pump also. Installed a new re-conditioned crank, would this be ground down to a smaller diameter at the real seal section on the crank?
