Cool Engine rear main seal

Time to go to the experts. Working on a 99 Cherokee sport 4x4 5spd. I have the service manual and parts breakdowns on the computer and cannot find the p/n for the engine rear main seal. This is a 4.0 and the only place I think I see the part is in the lower gasket package, but no breakdown of those parts.
Anyone here know the part number of the rear main seal? (not the #7 crank split seal, the one on the flywheel attach).
I have talked to the local dealers parts guys and they concur, they can't help me. Curious??

Thank you for the info but that's the #7 crank seal inside the pan. The p/n I am looking for is on the flywheel attach end of the crank, aft of the position you sent.

Take a pic of what you are after. The only part i know of that attaches to the end of the crank is the flywheel, followed by the clutch and disk.

Are you looking for the input shaft seal? Part # 83506045 or maybe 4741296

fb97xj1 is correct. There is no seal assy on the aft crank flange of the 4.0. I checked my pics from 2012 and confirmed.


2012 pic of my 4.0. That mess is from the bad freeze plug due to the improper factory flushing. That was all fixed and cleaned. But, as you can see, no seal.
