Slight Oil leak from oil seal carrier ?? Normal?

No Title

I just love the word "compatable" "almost fits" "kinda fits" "force fit" "should work" "might work for a while" and might just fail shortly after installation.

Lol I im changing that seal to the national one you said
And I'll see how that goes
Can I put a sleeve on that yoke or do I have to replace it? I have sanded it with 400 grit by hand for an hour and there's still some minor pitting all around but feels smooth to the finger ?

Like I said it looks like the seal was riding in the wrong spot. most of the grooving I have seen has been farther back ,more toward the middle of the yoke. Might be better using 600 or 1000 wet/dry paper and some oil
Those were repaired with a Speedi-Sleeve

Any part number for an exact fit for my yoke? It's hard to find one that's 2.25-2.25inch and height of .35 most I found are like .70 and up, too tall unless I have to cut to fit ? I appreciate the help guys I really do

That looks different from mine? Mine also has outside snap rings ? Or can I improvise or put inner rings ?
Mine is off a 2003 bayliner 205 I thought 46020T doesn't work in drives over 1998 ?

Then you have a Alpha GEN II type drive 865492T if the drive serial number is 0L100009 and above. Drives below that number use the yoke listed

yes that's what I said many times in this post lol it's a gen 2 . Brother Any sleeve that's exact fit for this yoke ? This yoke is like $120 compared to the others at $50 why? Just because it's newer they're always jipping us lol
