Fuel pump oil seals

Hi Guys
Got a small oil leak around the fuel pump on my series 3 Sud, nothing major but just annoying.
The oil seals are clearly worn, and over the years I have never been able to find suitable replacements.
I have tried gasket sealer and paper gaskets all with only marginal success, anyone have any other ideas.
Cheers

Hi Sudman. I take it the leak is between the pump and the engine (inc plastic block). If so I’d remove the pump and use a decent black RTV sealant. I use a product Called Corteco HT300C It seal Sumps on twin sparks Which don’t use a gasket.

Thanks for the quick reply
I have some gasket seal for twin spark sumps, I will give that a try while I have some time on my hands. :D
