Bugeye H2O Pump Rebuild

Asking on behalf of a friend who wants to rebuild the water pump on his 59 Bugeye.

Is a replacement seal readily available? I couldn't find one in the online Moss catalog, perhaps because replacement pumps are available.

Apologies if this isn's enough info to answer - I know zip about Bugeyes but offered to help in the hope that one water pump is pretty much like another.
 
My only experience is with TRs where the original pumps are clearly superior to the replacements offered (grease nipple in casting, larger impeller).

Are the Bugeye replacement pumps the same spec and quality as originals? Rebuilds are usually so straight-forward it seems a shame to chuck the old one, especially if it is superior design.
