I have a 1941 packard straight 8 282 engine when i overhauled it i was amazed that it had no seal of any kind just a slinger integral with the crankshaft as you mention. I find it hard fo believe Packard used a rope seal on earlier engines. I wish they did because i think it is a better system than a slinger

My engine leaks a little but not too bad i wish there was way to put a neoprene sealbin but i have not heard of it, have you?
