Hi Ian and welcome.You will find it very helpful here.There are lots of people here that are more than happy to help you with all sorts of problems.It's great here I love it.Also I agree with Bruce yes change the seals very easy to do.You never know how good they are,even just pulling the engine apart could unsettle them.I'm sure you will find them here in the online store.Bruce has a lot of good parts in there,and prices are (So far from what I can see) are better than my local shop anyway.
Have fun and enjoy.
