the front oil seal is on the timing cover and runs against the front
pulley.
moss # 520-000
never had problems with this type of oil seal, unless
you running in excess of
50000 miles. even then its pretty darn good.
especially since its at best 1940's
technology maybe even late 1930's

Subject: [TR] Crankshaft oil seal?
Hi all;
I'm in the process of
ordering a few parts to change the timing chain on my
TR3A. In the parts
supplier catalogues, I can find no evidence of a front
crankshaft oil seal.
Is that correct? I see there is an "oil deflector"
(personally, I think
that's what all oil seals should be called on British
cars; then there'd be
no excuse from the manufacturer when they start
leaking!). However, I don't
see a seal, as such. I'm using the Moss diagrams
and
the TRF catalogue; I
do have a photocopy of an original parts manual but,
predictably, the page I
need is missing.
Thanks!
Tim
