617 Turbo re-sealing

1985 300D 617 turbo. Turbo part number on tag is 002-096-75-99
The turbo has good boost pressure, but leaks oil from the rear plate. (side facing the firewall).
Has anyone had any success with replacing this seal, or am I better off having it rebuilt?
R&R of the turbo is straight forward, and with it functioning properly, I assume there would be no need for waste gate adjustment.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
I am not sure if the turbo is a Garrett or KKK.
Alan
