On the later engines (the ones you cannot remove the bearing) does the center bolt have the O-ring on the 'transmission side' of the bearing, meaning that I will be able to replace by removing the IMS cover?
If so, would you recommend installing a Viton seal (green color, high temp), since according to the dealer they do not offer a seal for the center bolt (or the center bolt itself) unless you buy the entire cover assembly @ only $140... 
Sorry for asking so many questions... thank you for your support!

All OEM IMS have the O-ring in the transmission side of the bearing, so it will be out in the open when the cover is removed. Viton will be fine.
