FridgeFreezer Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I believe it's a tell-tale, assuming it's on the casting between the bearings. If the shaft seal fails, water comes out there. Unfortunately mud can go in there & eat the seal (ask me how I know). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Fill the hole with grease. If the pump leaks it'll still let water out, but will prevent dirt from getting in. Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
