Default leaky A/C compressor shaft seal

Refrigerant oil is visible on the threads outside the center shaft.
Can just the seal/gasket be replaced?
Or does the whole compressor need replacing?
1995 Chevy S-10 pickup.

Default leaky A/C compressor shaft seal


The seal can be replaced. The last time I did this many years ago I was told by several parts stores that I needed a new compressor, but I finally found a place that had a seal kit.
