hello Charlie,
There's 2 seals on the tach drive and this link provides great info on the seals and where they can be purchased:
https://www.sl113.org/forums/index.php?topic=32589.msg237082#msg237082.  Bud's Benz also has the seals: https://www.budsbenz.com/catalog/230-250-280-sl/a-engine-engine-mounts-transmission-mount-engine-repair-parts/A209-027.
