 ============================================================================== 
Take the fuel pump apart and move the cam arm and just look at how much it 
seals and how much open space you have, the slit opening is about 2 inches in 
length, now if you want to call that a seal so be it, why did thefactory cease 
installing this "seal" on the new pumps years ago, and none of the rebuild kits 
has included them in the rebuild kits for sometime, I have about 6 of the "NOS" 
A/C rebuild kits from the 60/70's none of these kits have this so called seal, 
as Randall said, if the diaphram fails gas will eneter the oil pan, but that 
has 100% nothing to do with that part, gas would enter the oil pan on any pump 
with a 2" clear opening around the cam arm.  "FT">
