My old seal with spring detached like yours. Upon purchasing a new seal, you can see that the spring is part of the seal on the back side. New seal= new spring. Go ahead toss the old spring and change the seal.

View of hub and bearing from inside with axle removed. Looks like the seal is a little beat up and grease is coming out. Perhaps there’s a little dirt or something that got in there and that could be the culprit. I cleaned the abs sensor while I was there, no change.

Btw. I have noticed a barely noticeable moan/ roar when wheel turned slightly right say on an off ramp which I believe would point to the same LH bearing.  

Next move- swap out for a junkyard spindle and cross my fingers.
