Is there a chance that it is an oil seal? If it is how difficult is it to repair? Just slide it on or something more invasive? According to the schematic there is an inner and an outer seal.

The shaft seems solid. I haven't checked the oil. I will let you know. If it was the seal, there wouldn't be any oil at all int he lower unit right?

Is the object hollow like a seal or solid like a washer? You can see the prop shaft seal is still in place and no oil is dripping out.
