I opened it up, with the plan to replace the shaft seal. The shaft is stuck in the cover and the cover bushing-to-shaft is _way_ to loose. And the shaft has worn grooves, and scoring from the body bushing. The pump from the parts car is actually in better shape - except the seal grooves are deeper. Both, I suspect, ran for a considerably amount of time without sufficient clean oil in the system. :( I haven't bought used parts since Atlanta Stutgard closed shop...
