Default Bristol 400 rear axle gears

The rear axle started wining badly. I took the main case out (not a lot of fun! ) and the problem is in the pinion bearings. They are different than what my parts book shows ( tapered versus plain) and in-fact several changes seem to have been made including an oil seal?? This changes the distance within the nose case.
Anybody done this repair?
Thanks,
