Transfer/Trans leak input shaft groove

Ok, I have been having this annoying leake between the trans/transfer case. So Dave Goerend sent me both the trans output seal and transfer input seal with a new valve body to try (love it). Well I changed both seals and sure enough, it is still leaking. The thing is, I did notice a groove on the transfer input shaft where the seal rides.

So can the shaft be replaced? anyone do it on their own?
I have used plenty of speedy sleeves on older cars for leaking harmonic balancers, do they make one for this application?

It doesn't leak so bad I have to add fluid, but it is annoying to see it wet under there all the time and it does leave occassional drips on the driveway.

Thanks folks

Yeah, I probably will. I try not to take up much of daves times as we (those who use him) know how busy he is. I will give him a ring in the next day or so.

I understand and don't blame you. There isn't any grass growing under his feet.
