Are you REALLY serious ???
Did you expect anything less?

yeah, I'd put some marine grease on them to prevent rust..
OK, so here's a picture of the input shaft seal and input shaft bearing.

The input shaft seal is easy to remove & replace. The input shaft bearing has a rubber o-ring around the outside edge. I'm reluctant to dig into it until I completely understand what's there.
The black seal has sealant around the edges. Guess I need to dig out the sealant and pry out the black plastic seal (destroying it)? Guess the new seal somehow taps into the hole?
Thanks!
The o ring on the bearing looks like it seals the output housing at the bearing. I would replace it.
Did you put any sealant on the OD of the seal? I use sparingly, Permatex Aviation Form-A-Gasket No 3. I would also us it on the black plug.
I would get a new black plug before trying to remove the old one. If I had a new one "in hand" I would not worry about destroying the old one.
ruffdog,
Funny you should mention that, I was just about to post this pic showing the bolt hole leakage from overnight.
