Coolant seal failure is the best failure in my book. lol Sounds kinda weird though.
Although what Ive seen in my past 5-6 tear-downs is that coolant seal failure might lead to damage to a housing or iron, in which you will have to get a new/used housing or iron.
If the apex seals are "toast" you'll probably need new housings, and maybe rotors.
Won't know until you tear it down.
Are you thinking of rebuilding it yourself or sending the motor off to a specialist?
