You have aroused my curiosity Mike. Anybody know what color new rear
main seals are?

Paul,
    I have two 13B  rear main oil seals (from Mazdatrix and a couple of
years old) which are orange in color.  The front oil seal I have for the
front cover is black.  However, when I dismantled the Japanese 91 Turbo II,
its rear oil seal was black in color.

Was it brittle Ed? I checked my 87 and 88 and both are orange and still flexible.
