$21.95. A modern neoprene seal that replaces the old 2 piece style rope seal in the front of the motor. The bottom rests in the oil pan, and the top in the timing gear cover. No machining required.

$12.50. This is a one piece nitrile (which is better than neoprene) seal, which replaces the two white rope seals (9770). Fits 28-34 and 32 to 53 V-8s.

There is a third type seal from Bill Stipe that has an aluminum retainer and press in seal.
