Or fix it for less than the cost of a junkyard unit?
Remember that the OP merely has a leak. You got a leaking one for $350. So, for $350, you got to where he is now: an angle gear resealing job.
He should just reseal it...before he has to go try and source an already leaking one and spend more money than he would spend to fix his.
