Thanks for the replies!!

I did see that two piece seal in the BJ25 and FJ28 parts catalog.

Probably impossible to find that seal(s) *possibly* mark has it

Would try looking into ones from a model A ford? I think my father’s A has the two piece seal like that … however don’t know if the size would be correct … maybe even a T?

They had that old style cloth type seals

Just don’t know … it’s odd how that parts catalog shows nothing for that but a two piece in earlier manual

Look into early stove bolt Chevy 6 as well?

Since this is only for 1958-ish F engines it won't help many, but here is the modern replacement for early rear main seals.

No not help many at all … however for the one or two the next several years that see this … they will be thankful and your contribution lives on

(Untill the Chevy stovebolt rear main seal supply dwindles because of us Land Cruiser guys lol)

I can't take credit for finding the seal, that goes to @Indygbd. He has a similar year F engine.
