When I told him about being the same as the small block he was able to track it down. What he came up with is National K3517S.
I picked it up and it seems to be a match. Not sure why the other didn't work out but thanks guys for the info.
Another problem solved.

I don't have the old one out yet I wanted to have the new one on hand before I removed it. The one in there looks like a two part seal I will pull it today and let you know. Thanks 3B for the heads up.

Note that Rockauto lists two front engine seals (timing cover seals). The wider seal serves to try to place the seal on an "unworn" location on the drive shaft. | | |
