Sure,  use a press to remove the pully.  The impeller and shaft are pressed
out of the bearings, take the seal to the 100 year old guy at your local 4
wheel drive shop (sorry, no LBC parts shops in MN).  He found a seal that
was close enough, no box, in a bin of hundreds of old seals.  $3 later, and
a little permatex gasket goo, and the spit is back together!

I replaced the plugs and 
the water pump seal (yes, they are rebuildable!)
