The bike is now leaking oil quiet rapidly. It appears to be coming from the sprocket/ output shaft area.

Is there usually a seal there that could have worn? Or perhaps it's that I didn't tighten the left hand crankcase bolts enough on reassembly.

there is a bearing and seal that the shaft goes through, that could well be your problem,, dodgy seal or bearing.
sometimes due to having the chain too tight!

In that case, is there a method to replacing the oil seal without having to dismantle the left hand crankcase again?

I'm guessing the possibility of doing that is different with all bikes...
