Leaky rear bearing part 2

Ok .. Fix did'nt work..

Sooo...

Bought a 'new old stock' from very old parts place round the corner..
Got an original ford escort rear bearing - first thing i noticed was the raised lip.
This is the correct bearing to axle case seal - held firmly by the 4 bolt retaining plate..

No leaks here...

I took this picture of a spare Capri bearing with identical fitting to show the lip seal extending
beyond the metal bearing face.

This pictures is the leaky bearing with the rubber band type fitting..
