Mine did need doing and I was really annoyed that it was not possible to do it in any other way other than to remove the engine.Hence the frame mod that I made.Photos to follow once downloaded onto photobucket.

you CAN replace the seal WITHOUT taking the engine out ,use a small self tapping screw,  screw it into the old seal take care not to damage any of the alloy seat,  grip the screw with pliers and pull it out, slide the new seal over the shaft and use a deep socket of the right size and some lube and tap it into place job done  ;) works ok for me  ;) cheers Mick.

If only I had known this when the job needed doing back in 1979.

But they didn't have the internet back then.
