Default 01 xplorer oil in counterbalance

Checked the oil in my counterbalance yesterday and its a nice white milky mess. I did some research and it seems their is a leak from the water pump.

Can anyone tell me exactly what seals I need to buy to repair the problem? I need to change out the Polaris piston this summer so I will probably just take the engine out and do everything at the same time. Any other maintnance recomendations while I have the bike ripped apart?

Thanks for the help!

Default pump

there is a oil and a coolant seal both in the water pump.I would replace both seals and the bearing in the water pump housing.check the pump shaft its part of the counter balance and is often damaged where the seals run on the shaft. also would be a good idea to replace the crankshaft seals also while you have it apart.
