Nope. Rod in, and nothing hitting. Trans shaft goes in the pilot bushing about 1/2" right? Figured that is what it has to be. Also not hitting anything outside for sure.

Roger, I have not looked to see the size of that gasket, I assumed it went on behind the flywheel adapter, maybe the edges are just pinched in there...will check that out.
No, the seal and housing is out on the pic. Just talking about the gasket behind housing and the adapter plate. The seal was easy as pie to take out of the housing. Cleaned it up and popped it rigjt back in with rubber mallet and piece of 2x4.

So just a piece of wood I can get in there?
