Too bad you are not nearby as I have 9 axle shafts for that era. What you have to look for is wear at the point the seal sits on the shaft as if worn it will leak. As for seals there are two tmanufacturers, one is Chicago Rawhide C/R and the other is National. One is really much beefier than the other (I think it is National) and a better choice.
