Part Description
The Corteco 17200 is a Rear Main Crankshaft Oil Seal (frequently cross-referenced under industry interchange numbers BS40613, RS29470, and JV724R). It is a split-design, rope-to-rubber conversion or modern elastomeric lip seal depending on the exact service era. It is installed at the rear of the engine block where the crankshaft exits, forming a dynamic fluid barrier to hold pressurized oil within the crankcase and prevent it from migrating into the transmission bell housing.
