As long as it is a 2 piece rear main seal any one should work.

Any two piece rear main seal block will fit on a 1984 Corvette. That would be '85 and older, IIRC.

You could use a newer, 86 and up, one piece rear main seal block and it will "fit", but you would have to change to a newer flywheel, as the crank flange is different for the one piece seal.
