M rear seal

Replacing engine on my M. Noticed that replacement engine seems to be losing oil at rear of engine into clutch housing. Removed fly wheel and it looks like oil is escaping from around end of crankshaft. Bad rear seal? If so can I access it from this point or do I have to
drop the oil pan? Does CaseIH have this part?
Thanks in advance for any advice, you guys have been a big help in my restoration efforts!
 
You need to remove the fly wheel and the oil pan to access the rear seal on the M. CNH dealer will still have the seal, but there are aftermarket seals out there too. Make sure that you soak the seal well before installing. They are 2 halfs made of felt. If you dont soak them in oil before installing they will become burnt out by the friction on the crank and leak again...

It is better to soak the felt in oil after it has been installed in the seal retainer groove, otherwise the felt will expand and it will be harder to get it into the grove.
