Default Transmission rear seal

I have the 4 speed Borg Warner transmission out of the car. Although I have no leaks from the transmission I think I should change the rear seal as it looks to be rather easy at this point.

I picked up a SKF 18658 oil seal from NAPA. It fits the diameter of the shaft but it is far too small to fit in the tails housing.

Anybody know the correct part number for this seal? I would like to get one locally as I have it scheduled with some friends to put it back in the car on Monday.

As always, thanks for your help.

If You remove the old seal it will have a number stamped on it just take it to a FLAPS and they will be able to match it up.
