What you are looking for is called a Speedi-sleeve manufactured by SKF Braeing company. It is a thin (.010?) thick metal round tube the slips over the length of the seal bearing suface. it is secured with Locktite. One installed it provides a fresh surface for the seal lip to ride on. Very common on engines with high mileage.

GO to a good auto pars store, such as NAPA.
