So my Alpha 1 outdrive leaking gear oil out of drain hole and water intakes. Pulled drive off and pressure tested to 15psi. Looks like the leak is at the drive shaft seal on the upper half. Split the halves to check out the seal. My question is what keeps that seal in place once it is installed? Its seems that a new seal even when installed properly would "pop" out under 15psi. There is nothing there to keep it from moving down the shaft except the small rubber o ring.
Thanks in advance
