The drive and prop shaft seals are just plain tough to get out. I have seal pullers, and small jaw pullers for my slide hammer, as well as a torch. These usually just break up the brass seal cases and leave a mangled mess left, in the hole. I put on my patience cap, grab a small, half round cold chisel and start picking carefully away at it. If you can fold in the sides of the shell enough, it will come out, eventually.

Long live American manufacturing!
