I sure overlooked this one. I thought there was no way the oil seal in the oil pump would come out without a fight. Turns out the oil seal was on the crank pulley all the time. It was a really old looking seal, white in color originally but now brown on the side in contact with the oil. It was stamped "Saab". It was so shrunk that it would hardly stay in the oil pump body under its own weight.
I appreciate the advice to look for the seal on the crank pulley (big time). I could have easily put the pulley back onto the crankshaft with the old seal still on it and torqued it down to a fair the well. That would have made for a hell of a mess with both seals (old and new) trying to occupy the same space. And I wouldn't have know about it until I tried to start the engine. Thanks.
