Need help on c30hp lower unit

Hey all,

I have a 1992 Yamaha 30hp (2 cylinder single carb model# c30elrq) outboard that nees new LU seals. The (incorrect) oem manual (c30R) I have for it is accurate except for the lower unit which lists a 4 bolt water pump that is more traditional in design. Unfortunately my motor has a water pump housing with 3 bolts and a lower bearing housing that is removed with a special tool that is probably splined (not 2 bolt design). I was wondering how to remove the upper driveshaft seals. Do I have to remove the lower bearing housing via special tool to get to a pinion nut to remove the driveshaft? The lower unit appears to be the same one used on the 30 hp mariners as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I am attaching a few photos so you can see the style of Lu I have. Thanks

Yes, I am aware of that, as mentioned and the reason for reaching out. Thanks for the diagram, but have pulled it up online earlier as well, but still somewhat unclear of the seal removal procedure. (upper and lower). Have you by chance serviced one of these before?
