Note that the left and right seals are different sizes: the right is smaller.You will need to pop the stub out (duh), Steve Hoelscher had a how to in his take apart thread. As I recall he used a dent puller/slam hammer approach. One could also use a couple of long threaded bolts with a plate under each one to distribute the load on the case to wall.
After that its just a typical seal.
Looks like my left stub axle may be leaking. Following up here to Carl's question "what would normally cause this seal to leak?" and -It appears the left side stub axle seal is leaking on my 5-speed. How does one replace the seal?
Also, what would normally cause this seal to leak, I have never had one go bad and I have had way too many Xs.
You do realize these are Fiats?"what would normally cause this seal to leak?"
Looks like you were able to remove the left side stub axle without removing the outboard CV joint. That's helpful to observe. I've ordered a new seal.The long thread bolt method worked just fine.

The only issue was finding bolts with a long enough threaded shank. Didn't take much effort at all.
