Water Pump

[777sam]

My water pump was installed without a gasket (PO). So I removed it to reinstall properly. The shaft has no play but there are definitely stains from the lower weep hole? Should I buy a new one or reinstall?

Thanks,
Sam

I would get a new one. There is a nice write for sealing the back up plate before installing the pump.
