I have the 225 slant. Thanks for the input, I had already installed the seal flat side down, open side toward engine. But began to second guess myself. Thank you for verifying for me!! :)

I will try to find pics of old style, (with retainer), and new 1 piece "modern" type seal. Looks like a "tap in" trans shaft seal. I am assuming, (uh oh), that the flat side goes down into the recess, on the inside of the timing chain cover? But not positive.

Haven't figured out how to add pics yet? Actually joined to get a question answered (still no responses to that?) But am finding it pretty interesting stuff.

Anyone know which way the new front crankshaft seals should face? Removed old style and am installing new style. One side is flat, the other is "open", for lack of a better word? Any help appreciated, seems like it could go either way. thanks john new here

Hello all, Looking for some help with timing cover oil seal. 64 dart slant 6 (225). I have the new style seal and am unsure which way it installs? Removed old seal, new style looks as though it could go in either way? thank you
