Snyders have a new leakless kit that I now own but have not installed yet. It consists of a phony packing nut that is pressed into the pump housing from the front. On the coolant side, there is a brass bushing about 5/16" thick that provides a thrust face for the impeller washer.

The "nut" has a needle bearing and two seals to keep the grease in place.

The concept looks promising.
