Default Front seal leaks

What are the chances of getting it to stop by just replacing the seal?

The trans has 35,000 on it, at 28,000 I had it apart to put the whole TransGo kit in and a TCI converter. I later put the stock converter back in.
It had a slight drip every time. Last time I changed the pump gasket, o-ring, and seal. I did a M6 swap and it sat.
Now it's back in another car, if i drive it every day it might drip once. If I let it sit it leaves a puddle.
I know it's the seal, it's a timken from autozone.
What are the odds it'll not leak without changing the bushing?

If you're going to take it out to fix the leak, do it right the first time. Make sure that is where it is leaking from, and put a bushing in it.

I just don't feel like doing it I dug it out of storage 4 months ago and while it was on the bench that little voice in the back of my head was telling me to do it then, now I got to pull it out of the car.
Guess I'll order the parts.
Thanks.
