Is it just a seal or a bearing as well?
Looks like the seals I had replaced in my carver. My Carver has the type D. These were them,

Perhaps Boatfix has them.
The boat was hauled and rudder dropped out. Then the rudder seal assemblies were removed from the Inside of the hull. New assemblies were then screwed into their receivers that are molded into the hull at layup.
When the seal units are replaced have them check the rudder shafts for grooves. If there are any grooves at the lipseal location they must be replaced.
