Re: 1940 Transmission leak
Here's a picture of the cover plate I put on a transmission I rebuilt. RTV is used to seal it all and you just have to make sure that the screws securing the plate do not protrude into the inside of the box. I like the idea of the O-rings. I can see putting an O-ring on the rear end of the cluster gear shaft and one of these type of covers on the engine side. I don't see how you can install O-rings on both end of the shaft without the risk of tearing one. Could you chamfer the rear outside hole and grease it with vaseline so that as you slide the shaft in you would not tear the O-ring?
