Easy to replace, just pop out the axle/shaft and you can pop out the seal with a flathead and put the new one in, they're cheap as well.

You can rub a bit of RTV around the edge with your finger if you want, but its not necessary. All you need is a screwdriver to pry the old one out, then use a block of wood and a hammer to bang the new one in.

Take out the fill plug, stick your finger in and if you feel fluid right below the hole you are good.
