Super XL PTO side seal.

Recently acquired an old super XL, this is my first. It needed crank seals, and since I just finished rebuilding several XL 12s I had some SKF 6120 seals on hand. I have been looking for a clutch side seal and noticed that the 6130 seal is very close to the original does anyone know if this seal will work. Also I see performance saw supply sells some but I’m unsure of the quality.

FYI,
The link below is to a thread back in 2019 that shows some SXL seal options (flywheel and powerhead). I know the prices have gone up considerably since then but what can you do. The list does show the SKF 6130 but I am always hesitant to buy a seal even a little outside of spec (my opinion).

Thanks for the help. Hunting these old seals down has been an adventure.

FYI, I may have a spare DICHTOMATIK0609318TC if you can't find one at a decent/fair price in this crazy world. Notice, I wrote "may/might" have one buried in my spare parts bin from a purchase I made a few years back. Send me a private email if you are interested. I know many of these online stores require you to buy multiple pieces/units and/or screw you on shipping costs.
