I'm on my phone. So I can't send a pic. But if you think about it. The upper part of the seal its sandwiched between the block. I was tapping it out and the corner of the block closest to the transmission chipped off.

If someone gives me an email I could send it to them and they could post it. I'm on my phone and it won't let me.

I can't give you a garentee from a pcture but my opinion is you be OK. If you have concerns try rebuilding it with epoxy if it doesn't work out we'll see you back here
