OK got it apart.
Bluffed my way through it.
Input shaft seal had let water in.
Was seized in the bushing.

I suppose the first thing i need to know, how critical is the clearance between the bush and shaft on the input??? Will I have to rebush it?
Bearing is still OK.
I will get 3 new seals for it. Probably spedi sleeve to go on the nose of the input.
Can i buy the correct thickness gasket for the side housing??? Or will i have to find some paper and cut my own. The gasket paper i have her is way thicker.
What oil is it meant to be filled with???
Cheers, Bob.
