Pictures showing engine oil leak, and "precision seal removal" in process! The rear seal cover had obviously had a lot of silicon sealant (ineffectively) applied at some point; this was not done by any previous owner, as I helped install this transmission at W&P one year. It was bought as NOS overhauled and apart from the leaks, drives very nicely so I will presume its either an army or dealer bodge. I had the good fortune to have use of a hydraulic press available in the workshop space I had been allowed to use, so the new seals were for the most part pressed out and installed in a nice, controlled manner (which makes a change for me!).
