Lubed everything up good and replaced the shaft seal and the bearing seals. Removed all burrs and made a small chamfer on the shaft as per Donny M. Everything went well.
Topped up the fluid and she works and sounds great. Actually works alot smoother than ever too.
He's a pic sent to me by Tom at TM Tractors, showing the location of the seal in case anyone else is as blind as me.
