Default Steering rack tower seal

Anyone know a good source and maybe a part number? I once got one from rock auto but that was old rack that transmission shop damaged by letting motor rest on it... now rock auto only has listing for entire seal kit.
Thanks in advance
Darren

Roger Mabry changed his a couple years ago, maybe he'll drop by when he sees your thread.

Between that, the oil leak and the fact the car hasnt moved in 6 weeks, it made a wee bit of a mess, oil leak will go away when engine does, and while engine is out I will have plenty of room to get at that seal...

P.S.- Look at my post #66 in Alaskan Xj6/LT1 for a tip when changing the seal.
