...The rubber shaft seal includes a tiny fine spring to help grip the shaft spinning around inside the seal... the seal prevents oil from escaping along the shaft...

Thanks guys.
I think I'll start by just buying the seal from Z1 for about $2.50 and seeing if that works...
Maintenance goal for this week - - - Stop the tach leak!
