408 Stroker crank pulley wobble

I have a FFR Cobra kit car with a 408 stroker motor in it. Let me start off by saying I know very little about this car as it was recently willed to me by my late father. He had been having an issue of an oil leak from the front of the engine and when I fired it up I noticed the crank pulley (harmonic balancer) wobbling. I know a few things about engines so I immediately shut it down to avoid damage but I question how long he was driving it like this and if it could have damaged the crank, thus causing the failure of the front crank seal. Also, can anyone suggest the best place to purchase a new harmonic balancer and crank seal? Thanks.
