I feel your pain. I had brand new PSS Seals installed in Jun 2022, and now, in Jun 2023 still have one (starboard) that I cannot stop the dripping (at rest). With V-drives, it seems impossible to get at it and attempt to 'clean out any debris' on the interface. Always battling water to the point that I just installed an extra bilge pump to move the water into the center bilge, where the original bilge pumps can push it overboard.
