If it's leaking from the prop cap the seal is possibly ok
So seal the cap and see if it stops leaking

So i just got home from work and checked the gearbox oil,
it was fine thank God for that
It only took one pump of my oil filler and oil started running out, so I'm stoked about that

Still waiting for my oil seal to arrive in the post,

Also I bought some of this epoxy today to use to fill on the shaft,

Would this be fine?? It says it's used in high heat areas,
Engine blocks, bbqs mufflers ect

I received my oil seal today, the post has been very slow lately, 
just a question would I be right to assume that the side of the seal with the lip goes into the gearbox and the flat side faces out towards  the propshaft?
also do I just grease the entire seal up before installing it aswell??
I've got some pics there of the seal

The flat side facing out the lip facing into the gearbox. A trick to get the old seal out is to drill in two wood scerws into the old seal and pull out gently with a pliers. like this

Not a great vid but you get the idea

Thanks
I just found this video and it looks like it's the other way around in this video?
He has the flat side facing toward gearbox and the lip facing out towards the prop shaft?

Unless he had it installed wrong?
