SOURCE: fork leak
It can be as simple as a slight burr or piece of debris caught in your seal. You can try a 3x5 notecard wrapped around your fork leg and GENTLY work it down past the seal. Also inspect the fork tube closely and if you can see a visible burr remove it with very fine sandpaper or emery cloth.
If you have to remove the fork because it is leaking elsewhere (and you have checked your drainplug) that is rather involved and requires you to suspend the front of the bike to remove the front suspension. How far apart you take it depends on what you have to fix though.

check it for yourself. thats the best way to know if your seals are the right size. are you putting them in the right. be careful not the damage the seal while installing them i know this wont to much but feel free to me if you need more.

You can use Castrol 10 fork oil which is a mediocre type or Castrol 15 for hard rebound. The quantity should not exceed 250 ml per leg. Cheers
