    Hmmm, wish marineengine still had the 1955 parts breakdowns, but they don’t…Is 302435 the correct part number, or perhaps just a stray number stamped into the seal housing. I would think that seal housing is the same one used on later model 57 10-18hp models, but perhaps not…The part number for 1957 is: 307563 supercedes to 321788. I realize that sometimes they changed the housings slightly, different ODs for the seals….Perhaps you could just use the prop shaft seal housing from a later model, along with the later seal…Yeah, I know I’m just spit balling here, you will need the actual 55 parts breakdown to see if the housing supercedes…
    Just a thought in case the reducing bushing isn’t an easy option…
