I have my two water pumps with 3/8" pulley's disassembled; one original with the oil screw and one without. The new one without the oil hole appears to have permanently lubricated bearings. They both have a small shaft through bearings that are fitted to a larger shaft that is pressed into the water pump housing. The other does not but both shafts with the bearings appear very similar.

The bearings in the new shaft seam smooth with a little bit of end play back and forth. About .008 - it's hard to measure. Does that sound like it is good?

Is the shaft just pressed through the bearings? That's what it looks like. Are the bearings available? Any thoughts on rebuilding the pump?
