New I had water getting into Lu. Just pulled it and found the drive shaft seal under the water pump plate leaking badly. Does the water pump kit include that seal? Sierra pn 18-3392. Or do I need the LU sealink kit also?

Water pump kit will be here tomorrow. Trying to figure out today if I should order seal kit.
 
Here is a pic of the seal leaking the oil. IMG_5865.jpg

Leaking seal is so bad I was able to fill LU with oil with top vent screw in. Located the leak by forcing oil out the drive shaft seal. Im going to go on thinking this seal went bad from the time I bought the new to me pos relic boat and drove it home. And not jump to conclusions that the previous owner filled the LU with new oil so it looked good when I inspected the boat.
 
That likely has the 2 piece driveshaft.----They will leak if shaft is not vertical.-----Best to tear the unit apart if you think it was full of water !
