I found a double lip seal of 10 mm instead of 13.5 like the original OEM
Also 2 single lip of 7 mm(=14 mm)
Will let you know the part # asap...they are in my garage

Yes I have used two seals and you have to shave a little rubber off of the first seal and then shim the impeller slightly and it works.
