I have a NS30A3 30hp. Oil is leaking from the prop. Can I get a seal for it from a local parts jobber like napa or autozone?
Thanks

Re: Propeller Shaft Seal

Possibly, or for that matter, armed with the specs, from a local seal-and-bearing company.

But for the little extra money, I might suggest doing all the seals in the LU with Factory bits, unless the seal was damaged by something like fishing line. If one seal is weeping, chances are that the others aren't far behind. Good time to check/replace the impeller as well. The most-overlooked seal locations are the o-rings for the shift rod.
