Higher quality input shaft seal A833

Make sure the breather isn't plugged with dirt. If plugged, pressure will build up inside the trans.

Playing around with the old seal after removal, it seems to be a very snug fit on the shaft - not seemingly worn oversize at all. Considering the amount of oil that was on the outside of the bearing retainer I’m now wondering if the issue all along was no sealer on the bearing retainer bolts and oil wicked out them.
