It looks worse in the photo. I was able to clean it up
quite a bit, but it is worn a bit. I'll try to get some close up photos

Your motor shaft looks to have some etching
problems where the seal was. How deep? Unfortunately, that's a common problem

away in what becomes the classic low oxygen trap. You might need some repair
work there before reassembly.
