1450 PTO oil seal recommends needed

I had an interesting issue with the PTO seal on my Magnum 20S, 49623 engine recently. It appears that there are two different seals available for that motor, one from Kohler and the correct one from Cub Cadet. The original seal was from Singapore #BE1059E and still had the engine black paint on it.

I did confirm the engine in mine was a Kohler (acr) as it still had the sticker on it and even though I was having a hard time finding it (for whatever reason) (maybe my error), Digger was kind enough to assist with the PN and I found it advertised as a OEM Kohler part and have ordered it and will clean the PTO while it is apart since it is doing a good job of slinging oil. The tractor has been used for 40 years now but I am questioning it's life, especially since I don't use the snow thrower anymore.
At this point, I do not have any evidence to steer me on this "correct" part, so I suppose my only option would be to disassemble it to find out. This tractor belonged to my grandmother (long passed) and she stated when she first got it, a neighbor tipped it over and they had to replace the engine, and all my identification has come from the engine itself.
I've included a screenshot of the purchase, I also noticed they doubled the price AFTER I made the purchase, course it was half the price everyone else was offering it for to begin with.
