A`la Bill Eastman MGA front end project, my TC keeps shedding parts.  What
started off as an simple exhaust installation now finds me with most of the
front end of the car scattered hither and yon.  All kinds of things that
needed doing are getting done, unfortunately under warm clear skys (well,
mostly...)  I just know that when I finish this all up and get ready to
cruise the Wet Coast spring monsoon will arrive.  My point? oh... yeah...
 
Nasty and annoying leak from the front oil seal on the XPAG.  This is the
perfect time (I think) to replace it.  Is there a modern rubber lip seal
that will easily replace the rope? Anyone got a number?  I have access to a
good source of National seals so a National number or x-ref would be a great
help.   Any advice on this from the experts?  How big a job will it be with
the motor in the car?  The bonnet, grill, manifolds, rad and a whole bunch
of other thingy-doos are no longer where Cecil intended.
 
TIA & Cheers,
