John,

Did you try calling your local NAPA?  They usually have common IH part numbers
in their computer which can cross to standard seal numbers.  I can't offer any
help beyond that.  My IH parts manual shows the IH part number you mentioned
is for the carrier end seal for a Dana-44 axle.  Nothing special about it that
I can tell.  I can't help you with the cross-over though.

Good luck,

John L.
