Hi because I'm based in Australia the wait for my early 80s V4 Johnson driveshaft and prop shaft bearing housing inner and outer seals is longer than I hoped so went to a bearing shop and they matched the driveshaft bearing housing seals (p/n 0321453) inner & outer diameter to an all rubber one they had. Can I use this instead, as pictured? The seal went into the bearing housing much easier because of the rubber outer construction compared to the stainless outer of the original OMC one. Would appreciate advice please from the more experienced here.
They also gave me an orange tighter fitting O-ring to grab the seal around the driveshaft, rather than using the stainless spring based removable one the original seal had.
