In case you are not aware Pilate went insane. Washing his hands copiously.

Pilate did see Jesus.
Matthew 27:1-2 Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people came to the decision to put Jesus to death. They bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate, the governor.
Matthew 27:11 Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" "Yes, it is as you say," Jesus replied.

What are you talking about? By "seen" do you mean seen in his heavenly glory? If so, Jesus did not reveal himself to Pilate because Jesus was not trying to save his life and Pilate without faith could not have "seen" his glory in any case.

Have you been drinking? Even if He did reveal Himself to Pilate afterward (what would the point have been?), it's unlikely that Pilate would have made a big deal out of it. His government would have put him to death for stating such a thing.
If you want a real turn around story, read about Jesus revealing Himself to Paul. Paul hated and killed Christians… before he became one.

Jesus showed (by example and by words) how a true follower of God should be. Some recognized this and some did not, just like today.
There are those that heard/saw but did not get the sense of it. And, there are those that Jesus did not feel that it was appropriate to explain things at that time. He came to show the Jews (and later assigned the task for showing Gentiles to his disciples).
Also, he allowed his reputation to speak for itself in Pilate's case.

If you are referring to these verses, it happened after He died and was risen.
1Co 15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1Co 15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
1Co 15:5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
1Co 15:6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
1Co 15:7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
1Co 15:8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.
I don't know what you are referring to, "be seen to Pilate". He was with Pilate before He was crucified.

What would make you think that he was not seen by Pilate?

Because the whole purpose of His incarnation was to die for our sins.
How else could He be put to death if everyone knew the Truth.
Knowing the Truth would make it impossible for a person to try and kill Jesus.

All these questions about the resurrection, are you serious are just fooling around. It's your option, choice, freedom of will to believe it or not by stepping out on FAITH and trusting God's word for what it says.
