    Timing Cover Crankshaft seal for 455 V8?

    I am going to replace the timing chain and gears on my 455 (1972 Electra), and have them on order. I went to local parts house to get gaskets for the timing cover, and assumed there would be some sort of crankshaft seal for the cover as well, but they couldn't find anything listed, only the gasket, although similar listings for the Olds and Pontiac 455 do show the crank seals.

    Can someone enlighten me as to what I need to properly complete this job, and source of parts?
